Bit of progress.
Not the final product but getting there. Just spent the last couple of days running the control wiring through PET Expandable Braided Cable Sleeve. Was going to colour said sleeving but at $AUD 12.00 per 3m length and at least 8 colours wanted was looking at bit expensive. So black it was from my local electronics store. The pcb in the top left corner of the first picture is the board that will allow me to plug & unplug the front switches & indicator lights. Also added some short lengths of cable tray to give me something to mount the cable tie clips to.
Each PSU group is powered by a separate contactor, which is in turned controlled via a 24v relay that is latched on by a momentary push button. A simple PCB takes care of the circuit for each relay, with diodes for back emf. Saves on mistakes whilst wiring.
So basically if I lose power the machine doesn't come back on by itself.
Group 1 15v for the Odroid H2+
Group 2 5v & 24v for the Mesa logic & VField and a separate 24v for the 7i83
Group 3 48v for the stepper motors
Group 4 Control for the mains for the DYN4 Driver
Fear not all mains will not be left in this state. Line reactor still needs securing to cabinet.
Apart form the mains to the servo, all mains have been kept on on side & all control wiring have been kept on the opposite side.
