Who/what controls cyclic servo travel limits?

   The LP rookie is back..  :)

Slowly making progress with setting up two helis, one step at a time.  My current question:  What action or LP function has the absolute final authority over the maximum amount of servo travel?  Is it:
1 -- End point adjustment in the transmitter?
2 -- The max/min values for each channel on the Config/Input screen?
3 -- The max/min values for each port on the Config/Output screen?
4 -- The swashplate sliders/values on the Vehicle/Basic settings screen?
5 -- The Vehicle/Swashplate levelling routine?

I'm asking because I know that various inputs can be 'combined' by the CC3D to determine the proper cyclic servo position... Tx stick movement, pitch/collective signals from the Tx, attitude corrections from the CC3D, etc... and
I don't want to risk exceeding the servos' mechanical limits or the swashplate movement limits.

The settings on the output page.  It will never go farther than those limits.

If input goes too far it also gets clipped at min/max.

    Thank you, Cliff!

As always, thanks to everyone here for the help...  one of these days I'll be able to contribute to this forum instead of just absorbing all the good info...   :P
