normally the e-stop is connected all the time and when you push the button, you break the signal. This way if a wire breaks it will go into e-stop. The ohter way and a broken wire will prevent the e-stop from working.

I would try the g540 with out the motor hooked up. As A rule I would do the connections 1 step at a time. I would also have a copy of the owners manual in front of me while doing this. I have made mistakes and when I open the manual the answer is right in front of me.
