General Mach Discussion / Re: Limit Switches

Hi Nick,
Mach3 will back off until the switch de-activates.
You are probably, dependant on the quality of your switches, seeing 'switch bounce' which is confusing the issue. This problem can usually be resolved by fitting miniature 0.1uF capacitors between each switch input and GND at your breakout board (or where you have connected the switch wiring to your controller). A secondary solution is to increase the Debounce Interval in Config / General Config.
Hope this helps,
Tweakie.
