Wiring up home switches

Post by friolator »

Lathe setup, so only X and Z axis. No limit switches, I'll set soft limits since I have closed loop steppers.

Is there a reason I should wire the home switches in series to one input, rather than to separate inputs? I have the input since I'm not using limit switches.
