While trying to fix my Pin*Bot target bank, I noticed the two limit switches were not the same (manual says they are both the same). Also, I managed to break the one that was actually correct. So, I ordered two new ones. The new switches have three lugs:

Common
Normally Open
Normally Closed

Am I correct in assuming that I should use "Normally Open" and "Common" for these two switches? Is this correct?

Green/Blue (Column 7) should be wired to Common
White/Blue, White/Violet (Rows 6/7 with diodes inline) should be wired to Normally Open

Thanks!

Thanks, Lloyd! So far, so good. I'm going to play test for a week or so and then post back on a thread I posted in a while back about the target bank not going all the way down.

The limit switch for the down position on my Pin*Bot had a much different actuator arm, and I think it might have had something to do with my issue. I also cleaned off the old grease on the two plastic parts of the target bank that slide against each other and added a bit of lithium grease.

Here are pics of the original switches and one of the new ones. And yes, if you're wondering, I used to be a hand model.
