How should I wire if I use the same switch as Limit? Can not wire the same switch to pin 4 (limit/E-stop)
Using pin 4 will collide with homing (all switches will be in parallel - remaining two will have NC contact therefore no homing)
Jazz, could you please send the wiring - loosing plot.
You got me bambozzled now and Not quite sure what your asking for but here's quick diagram showing 2 options. Option #2 is probably your best option.
