Limit Switch Setup Continued 

** You can verify that the wiring at the limit switch makes sense for your 

application: 

 

There are three rows of terminals  

 

On each cam the terminal closest to the cams will be for Normally 

Closed limits. Whenever the cam engages the switch the circuit 

is disconnected from the common. It is used for your stops, 

should have a green wire and a red wire each to a separate cam. 

(3-stop: also, blue and white) 

 

The next row down is for Normally Open limits. Whenever the 

cam engages the switch the circuit is connected to the common. 

This is only used for interlocks (if equipped), a cam per interlock 

is used aside from special cases. Typically, a white wire for the 

first interlock (if 3-stop: red with black stripe) then blue if there 

is a second interlock (if 3-stop: red with black stripe) 

 

The bottom row is the common. Typically, a black wire is jumped 

to all the cams that are used. On units with interlock(s) there will 

be an orange wire going to the associated cams.

  

Failure to follow these instructions will void all warranties to equipment as written or implied. Galaxy 

Unlimited LLC will assume no responsibility to damages that were a result of improper installation or user 

error.  WARNING: Failure to tighten the retainer nut could allow the limit switch adjustments to change, 

causing the LIFT TO NOT STOP. This could possibly cause damage to the limit switch, lift, and/or the entire 

system.
