Introduction

Now that you know how to build a typical reversing circuit, you will build a reversing circuit that works via a limit switch. The limit switch will make the reversing automatic.

Note: Automation Studio is not required for this lab.

The following video will walk you through the steps of building the circuit according to the schematic shown below.
