Hi all, i'm having problems with the wiring of my home switches, mach 3 doesn't seem to recognise them in the diagnostic screen but they are working, but incorrectly, you have to press the the switch a couple of times before the axis stops. at the moment they are connected up open circuit, so when the switch is pressed it becomes live i have swapped the wires but to no avail. I have no idea whats going on and i'm not sure how to configure mach 3 with regard to the inputs and outputs etc
The switch is a mechanical lever type as shown. any help would be most appreciated
one wire goes to earth in the control box and the other is pin. pins used are X=13 Y=12 Z=11Last edited by Kev2960; 21-03-2017 at 08:21 PM. Reason: pin numbers added
