1) The Limit switch settings, they seem to be the opposite of what is described for an "ActiveLow" scenario with a "NC" switch used to achieve an "ActiveLow" setting. But in my case even though I'm using "NC" switches they only work when the Input Signals are set to "ActiveHigh". In all the documentation and everything that I have read on the forum and Internet it says that in order to use an "ActiveHigh" setting you have to be supplying voltage to the Limit switches, and I'm not.
2) Diagnostics Screen, what exactly does the "Input 1-4" represent? From what I can tell it's not the same as the Input on the G540 because I don't even have Input 4 wired up.. Input 4 in my case seems to be related to the Slave Axis, the A Axis but I'm not certain and I don't see any documentation on it. Logically you would think they mean the same thing..
3) The "Soft Max", "Soft Min", "Slow Zone" and "Home Off"
- Are the "Soft Max/Min" set from the distance of the Limit switch or Home switch?
- Is the "Slow Zone" the distance before it hits the Limit switch or the Home switch?
- Is the "Home Off". used to set a distance from the physical Home switch?
