Sorry about that, limit switches, don't know why i got that they are breaker switches...

Ok, will try something at lunch today.

There are typically three terminals on a limit switch; which terminal are you connecting to each pin on the Digital Sidecar?

I just remember two but i will check... Thought i posed somewhere else earlier...

EDIT:

Will check again though... Not sure what you mean by three terminals... But should I get rid of the not also?
