    3). I would really like to mount the control box on the frame, I've read comments about vibration etc, is it really a bad idea or do some folks find it works ok, it would make my cabling neater and the whole machine would be more compact.

    1. Mine is hard wired to the consumer unit using armoured cable.
    2. The ESS connects directly to the PC with a standard ethernet cable.
    3. Mine is wall mounted but maybe you could mount it to the frame using rubber engine mountings.
