Hi all,
I'm new to buildlog and ordbots, but not to DIY 3D printers (4 reprap builds, AO-101, cupcake, up mini, and replicator 1 and 2 experience).
I purchased a reprap discount ORDbot kit + RUMBA + smart controller and my package came with 6 cool looking mechanical endstops like the one pictured here (3 are labeled MIN and 3 labeled MAX).
My problem: I can't figure out how and where they mount! The standard ORDbot mounting positions don't work for these switches.
Most mechanical endstop designs use the holes that go through the body of the switch for mounting, but these look like I should be using the holes through the PCB which orient the switch 90 degrees away from what I'd consider normal operation of a mechanical end stop.
I'd love to use these switches (they have little LEDs that light up when they're activated - that's not only cool looking, but will help with calibration!).
Anyone out there have a guide for how they should be mounted?
