Magnetic switch on door

I am trying to hook up the magnetic safety on the laser door. I hooked one wire from magnet to 1 in and the other wire form magnet to gnd. The laser worked when the door was open and wouldn't work when door was closed.

Thanks,
Bruce

What kind of controller do you have?
I thought you can invert the function in the X7.

If you haven't found it yet:
When you press STOP and SHIFT simultanious, you enter the manufacturer settings.
Ther you see Option 3: IO Parameters. Select that.... there you see "Open protection", set that to "Open" and set "Input Valid Level" to "High Level" if it was "Low Level" or vice versa..
