Hello to all
It's great that you share your experiences here.
I have a question about the port and PIN settings on the Mach3 USB Board.
I installed all the limit switches in parallel and put them into input 2. Also, I connected all home switches in parallel and put them inot Input 3.
The device works well and the homing process is done perfect and the limit switches work properly.
Now, my question is that in the diagnostic screen, when I activate one of the limit switches, all the LEDs related to the limit switch are activated (which is normal because I connected them all in parallel), as well as for the home switches. But in many videos and documents, I see that the microswitches of each axis send signals separately, so it is clear which axis's microswitch is involved.
Because I know that in order for the signal to be sent separately to each axis, the microswitches of each axis must be connected in series and connected to the board separately (through ports 10, 11, 12)
Is there a way I can set ports 10 to 12 as limit switches? This cannot be done in the pin and port settings. I think that in general this board does not have these features.
Finally, my ultimate goal is to be able to remove the home switches and use limit switches as home switches.
Can I do this using this board? For example with a macro
Thanks in advance for your information
