    Wiring For Proximity Switches

    I have brought a few Proximity Switches from the bay. I have no idea how to wire these switches. I like to use as limit and home switches. I have drawn up the wire schematic. I am using 12 volts power for that, do I need any resistors?

    It depends what you are hooking them into, what is the nature of the input?

    I will connect to C11T from CNC4PC. I don't get what you meant the nature of the input.

    Thanks

    I understood these boards are 5v input?
