Re: How do i wire limit switch

Ian,
Although the rule allows the use of the NXT, I believe the rules may be written so that NXT compatible sensors are to be used with the NXT brick.
If you do some research, you will see that many if not most minibots do not use an NXT as it only adds weight. Standard limit switches can be used to directly power the two FTC motors and you can use home lighting switches as well.
