PoKeys / Pins 36,37,38 are set to outputs when External 4ch without IO is used

First of all, I made a device reset and did a clean install of mach3 (also deleted PoKeysMachConfig.xml in ApplicationData folder). I have my limit switches + probe on pins 34-40. I was following pokeys mach3 setup document and after I set pulse engine to External 4ch without IO and restarted mach, pins 36,37,38 got set as outputs. 34,35,39 and 40 stay as inputs. If I close mach and open pokeys app and set pins 36,37,38 to inputs and then start mach then they again are set as outputs. I even tried to actually configure limit switches on pulse engine tab in mach but those 3 pins stay as outputs.
Before reinstall I had it working but was experiencing the same thing. Every time I started Mach I had to go to pokeys config and click OK, after that limit switches were working fine until I restarted Mach and found those 3 pins to be outputs again. Are those pins somehow reserved when External 4ch without IO (PoExtBusOC16CNC) is used? Using Pokeys57E.
