I needed to test a Click program and built the digital input box in the attached photograph. It is designed for 120 VAC operation but it could be modified to run on other voltages as well (24 VDC). Just used some junk box parts laying around the shop. Built it in an afternoon using point-to-point soldering techniques. Works well. The only upgrade I would make to it at this time is to put in different switches to give either a continuous "ON " signal in one direction and a momentary "ON " signal in the other direction.

Nice! I like your idea of using ON-OFF-MOMENTARY toggle switches - that will give you a very versatile tool for testing.

Looks good
I made one similar awhile back, but to be really useful I had to redo it and build one with inputs and outputs.
Then I redid that one and added a current transducer for analog input.
