Title: Limit switch placement
Post by: air2gnd on June 05, 2011, 08:25:15 AM

I have a controller box made for me, the unit came with 3 prox switchs . The question is where would the best placement for these switches and what would be the best setting for these. I mean: home ++/-- setting for all axises.
Thank you

Best to have the switches set mid axis if possible and have a trigger either end so that you have one switch being used for both positive and negative of an axis.
