Hi Ryan -

ive just completed my build, and see that my red lights are active all the time, unless i press the switch, and then the lights go out. Because of this I know they are connected, but something up here, as its the opposite of what you say should be happening. I also notice that the switches don't stop the machine movement at all.

Any ideas how to solve this?

It is normal for there to be a delay between pressing the limit switch and the status being updated in WorkBee Control.

This is because WorkBee Control only polls for the status every couple of seconds.

Please do not be concerned, the board itself will stop the motor instantaneously after it has been switched.

You can test this, as there is a red light on the board which will show when the limit switch is pressed.
