    Hey Guys.
    So i decided i couldnt sleep, so spent the night trying to sort out the home and limit switches.

    If i understood this right:
    THere will be 4 Separate inputs to the driver board.
    1. X Home (Currently not connected / Off in mach 3)
    2. Y Home (Currently not connected / Off in mach 3)
    3. Z Home (Currently not connected / Off in mach 3)
    4. X, Y, Z in series, with an emergency Stop added in series later. All set to CLosed, until tripped. (Connected / Pin 15 mach 3 - Tested with multimeter to open circuit.)

    I have found that Mach3 emerngency stops every few seconds when i have Active Set to low for pin 15.

    Also in the Port 1 Pin Status lights i have the following:

    When i push one of the limit switches, The marked one lights up (i presume this is telling me the pins dropped).

    Any help?

    Thanks
