You've got it right. An open circuit will be read as 127, and with the switch closed you should see something like 230. No ground connection is needed (or wanted -- it could trigger the open-circuit detector and be read as 127 too).

Awesome, thank you very much. This is all coming as a good use of our fix-it window to improve upon our control system.
