I have a cnc machine and I need to connect an end stop switched to the motor and stages. first I need a simulation for this, that each snd stop is connected to a stage (x,y,z) and when the switch is closed the stage is stop moving. how can I do this using Multisim ?

You don’t simulate it in Multisim.
You mount the switch, if mechanical, add a small ecap for de bouncing, then program in your GCode controller program. I prefer GCode Panel for Win.

1\$\begingroup\$ Yes It’s the best Open Source code I’ve seen and best GCode App too. I chose it for a U of T custom gantry designed and supplied for their WPT program. It used an Uno with CNC Shield with GCode uploaded \$\endgroup\$– D.A.S.Commented May 8, 2020 at 3:57
