    I don't know what to set in the settings. That is not in the instruction manual.

    I have done werry simple: settings-motors- : 1-x 2-y 3-z 4-y, just pay attention which direction motors turning!
    Limit switches I have mecanical connected: 1-x 2-y 3-z and lower in same panel: limit pin "reverse" (regarding electrical wiering switches) 1, 2, 3, 4, because I have it on both y axes, so 8 total.
    Just take a look to MK3 manual from pages 20-25 and pick up desired wiering.

    ps
    be sure to output slave Y axe from MB

    I think we get on wrong. Of course I have it in the settings. But for the Gantry Square function you have to set something else with axis U and V.

    Yes I have. It was a little confused because I hit the E-Stop while in Auto Square. If you then looked in the settingings, the axes were still set with U and V.
    And you cannot determine which axis is slave and which is master.
    Since I had to swap the ports, then it worked as it should.
    I am very happy with it. I measured two places that were 30cm apart. and have deviations of approx. 1-3 / 1000. And that with repeatability.
