hi i have managed to upload my cnc6040Z XML settings file that came with the cd for my machine.great i hope you can help me with everything from start to milling something.
i have also attached a pic of the actual limit switches i would like wire in series 2 per axis on the actual board....

<<<Now i know that 2 limit switches will have 2 wires coming from them ---->1) Com(black wire GND) /// 2) NC(Red wire)
so that is 6 wires /6 limit switches...>>>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
now how and where on my jp-3163B v3.9 board i have attached a pic of , will 3 black wires and the 3 red wires be plugged in exactly ???

I see Eddycurrent beet me to it
while I was adding to one of your pictures
with only the link to select either the internal +5v or an external positive suppy for the input opto isolators
but no link to break the ground connection
it looks like you can not take full advantage of the input
opto-isolators
as soon as I can I will down load mach3 to see what the XML file setting are

You have the user name "Schematicsman", you are going to mill a pcb, and yet you can't wire two switches in series ? plus you can't read the previous two posts ! having a laugh ?
