Won't Initialize

I am trying to Initialize but getting an error that it is not detecting limit switches. I checked them to ensure they function. My 3xxl will start with z max going down then stop with the error. Any help?

Whenever your Z goes the wrong way it the config. On cm 536 connect but do not initalize. Go to settings. Pick your machine and z type in the first tab. Go to second tab and pick BitSetter and/or automatic spindle control. Go back to first tab and send config and you will see a dialogue box with fuel gauge. Then initalize.
