Newbie- Probotix / mach3 Connection problems

[oldskimmer]

I'm new at this, but built 3 axis router and attempting to use mach3 controller. Probotix green monsters prewired to breakout board. Having trouble configuring mach3 to breakout board & limit switches. All switches work well in test but shows open limit when powered up. Diagrams supplied do not show clear connections & configurations of 3 limit switches & 1 emergency stop, and mainly the common to all limit switches. Is common to ground? 15 in configuring? Any help or hints would be appreciated.

hope that helps,

I do have this diagram & connected exactly as shown. All problems seem to stem around the connection of the limit switch common and it's config in mach3. Thanks

I don't know probotix so take this for what its worth. On some setups debounce in Mach helps. If this doesn't help, you can try adding a .01mfd cap to the connections.
Call probotix seems like the bet answer.
