FWD_IN with N.O. Switch

FWD_IN with N.O. Switch

I have a N.O. limit switch sensor In normal mode it outputs ‘0’ and goes to '1' when the limit is reached.

How can I used it with FWD_IN?
=======================================================
The command INVERT_IN will do what you want.  For example with the switch connected to input 10:

INVERT_IN(10, 1)
FWD_IN = 10

      Out of the box, the ED3S drive will display Positive Overtravel and Negative Overtravel becasue it expects limit swtitches to be connected to the 24V inputs. When overtravel inputs are not required, set Pn000.1 and Pn000.2 to 1.
