XG-1 Assault Config at range 1

By Sergovan, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Because cannons now have range bonuses applied, does that mean an ion cannon at range 1 after a SLAM action, that attack can't be taken due to the limitation in XG-1 Assault Config?

" While you have exactly 1 disarm token, you can still perform [canon] attacks. While you perform a [canon] attack while disarmed, roll a maximum of 3 attack dice."

Either you attack at range 1 with a 4 die ion but can't roll one die OR you can't choose ion at range 1 and can't attack (because too many dice make it invalid)?

Which is it?

You roll 3 dice.

My reading of it would be that you can make the ion cannon attack but with only 3 attack dice.

You just roll 3 dice like the limitation says. Nothing states that you can not attack.
