Wiring Reference Switches in Series

Hello,

i have a Stepcraft 840 CNC Mill and plan to upgrade it with a Extruder for Printing.
The Motherboard will consist of basically just a Arduino Mega with Pins going out to the integrated Stepper Drivers of the Mill.
The Mill has 3 End-switches in the negative Direction which are wired in Series (would be a real Pain to change) and of course are normally closed.
Can the Repetier Firmware Deal with such an Setup?
Thanks in advance,

Tibor Lederer

  • Yes, this can work but you have to set to go back after hitting endstop so that the switch is disabled at the end of each axis being homed. Simply set x/y/z switch pin to same pin.
