    From post #44: Section 11.4 in the nextday build manual you linked to talks about how to set up the stepper motor driver voltages. Just make sure you set the meter to DC *voltage*, not DC Current like the text says.

    A starting point for a voltage setpoint and the terminals are discussed there.

    For now I'm not worried about whether the switches read open or TRIGGERED. For now, press and hold each switch closed (one at a time) while resending the M119. We want to make sure the value for each switch changes as you press and release that switch. If you have three switches, the values for the x_min, y_min, and z_min should be the ones changing.
