Kolias:
Tweakie is correct. I got onto a bit of a tangent trying to figure out what you have there. As I also mentioned I don't think it's going to work having the plate and your limits on the same input anyway, so while you're playing with wiring you might as well start now to re-wire things to free up an input.
Having said that you still need to understand the way the switches are actually wired and the mach settings to fully undestand the ACTIVE LOW or ACTIVE HIGH logic.
It may be that the BOB is inverting the sense of the actual switch action making it necessary to set the reverse logic in the software. (is that possible ??) This will make it doubly confusing.
