You want the S and - pins to be connected, and use the Max connections.

The + connector is for applying voltage (+5v) to powered endstops, like the reprap discount optical ones. On a snap switch, it would send that voltage into the board and cause bad juju.

Do you have a copy of the assembly manual?
