Whether to work with these sensors AE1-AN-1A - PMDX-424?
  Some inductive sensor recommend for  PMDX-424? Approximately 25-30$

The AE1-AN-1A is an NPN sensor from Automation Direct. It will work
fine with the PMDX-424.

For an inductive proximity sensor to work with the PMDX-424, it should
be a 3 wire NPN style sensor. We normally recommend a Normally Open
version because they can be wired in parallel to allow multiple sensors
to share a single pin if needed.

Brown wire to "+12U" terminal on J16 or J17
Blue wire to "GND" terminal on J16 or J17
Black wire to to "isolated input" 1 through 8 on J16 or J17

When you assign the input to a Mach4 input signal (like "Motor 0 --"), make sure to put a green check mark in the "Active Low" column.
