End Stop Switches for Atomstack A5 Pro

[KDM]

Hi.

Atomstack A5 Pro is definitely lacking some endstop switches. Its controller, however, does have connectors where they might be attached.

I have read of people adding the switches to other types of printer, but can't find anything specific to my machine. Questions are:

- Can it be done?
- Do I need to update my firmware?
- Does anyone know of an idiot's guide?

Thanks!!

If driver have inputs it could be done.

Like my machine on Leetro driver should have limit x +/ - and 0 position... so 3 microswitches.
But it have only one for 0.
