Ah I now remember you are going to mount it vertical. But you will still have to have the continuity of the screens in the JB. ..Clive

Still umming and arring about the JB, makes it a more modular solution but then gives more scope to introduce areas that could cause problems....

The advert says they're for 57mm motors, not 60mm, so yes... be cautious.

I think I'll make some myself when the machine is up and running, although it'll be tight for the Z axis motor as it's quite near the plate.....and I've got a Nema 34 on the X axis......

If you want the dxf etc give me a shout.

Cheers Clive, would appreciate the DXF and any other files you have....save me from re-inventing the wheel!!

OK so today I'm back on the limit switches. Below is the diagram I currently have, is there a way using the relay that I can have seperate inputs from each limit switch or is it not needed?



I'm going to have travelling switches on each axis (apart from the Z where I can probably get away with fixing it and have the trigger points on each end of the Z axis) and wire them back in shielded 3 core cable...

The home switches I'm going to wire individually into the CSMIO IP-M.....
