    touch plate with center finder port n pin

    my goal is to have my machine using machine x/y/z home with separate switch for plate touch to edge finder material with z axis touch (with pipe (using that tool offset

    can i use it to accept this switch via another pin? ie: x home is 12 y home 13 z home is 14 and for that touch plate can it be pin 15?

    will this concept work to find z axis and edge?

    Thanks
    Dan
