    Thanks, i have a feeling i'll be bugging you all LOTS to get this solved :)

    Would I need a new power supply if i switched to the AXBB or will 40V work?

    You'd keep the 40V for the stepper drivers. If necessary you could slave a very small 24V supply in there, or a DC-DC convertor to derive a 24V from the 40V. If you pursue this conversion I would at that time ask for more photos - I'm somewhat surprised that the control card takes in 40V - that's unusually high so it could be that there is another supply derived elsewhere (or otherwise regulated on the control card).

    EDIT: Omio's website shows the USB control card, at a V2.2 - the V2.1 I can trace to a Canadian supplier and looks identical except for the 2.2 including screw-terminals (2.1 was wire-board connectors), BUT, it did specify a 12-24V supply for the controller, which makes me more convinced than ever that there is a 12-24V supply sourced within the control box - that should be sufficient for the AXBB-E.

    The AXBB-E needs 5v and 24Vdc PSU's. The 5V is for the Step/Dir outputs and the 24Vdc is for the Input/outputs. ie Limits, E-stop etc.
    The 40vdc you have already is just for the Stepper drives.
    -use common sense, if you lack it, there is no software to help that.
