Re: SD540 Motor controllers won't run in reverse

Tim,
The DIP switches also affect operation on this controller. The limit switch, when sensed, may prevent motor operation in one direction. The controller could be fooled into thinking it is beyond the limit in that direction and therefore will prevent control in that direction.
