Celestron focus motor limits used incorrectly

I have Celestron AVX mount with focus motor connected through AUX port. It works fine overall.
[           org.kde.kstars.indi] - Celestron AVX :  "[INFO] Focus Limits: Maximum (42671) Minimum (2246) steps. "
Now, this 2246 number gets populated to Focus/Mechanics/Max Travel field. I can't set max travel any lower than 2246.
As I understand, Max Travel is maximum distance autofocus is allowed to drift away from start point. I would set it to 200 or so, because bigger difference makes stars too big, they can't be detected anymore and focus is lost forever.
