I Presume The router power Cable is run through the X axis chain and connected to the duet board, I cant find anything telling me how to connect it?

Peter Johnston - Reply

It's the openbuilds one you sell so its 24v. Is there another output to save me rewiring through the drag chains to main power supply? Cheers

Hi, ok thats fine then, you can connect it to the Duet Always on fan output, no need to go to the PSU.

Ryan Lock -

Is there a terminal to plug a led ring into? Would the other always on fan be enough?

Danny borrill - Reply

Yes, you can plug it into that. Just need to check the Voltages match.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for your message they are 50mm bolts. On the second picture the spacer is highlighted in green. The spacers are 1-1/2”. There should be some slot washers in there.

Best Regards

Ryan Lock

Thanks. I found the slot washers in the end. Being colour blind, I had to print out the page to see the green.

I can’t see anything labelled in green. Is there a picture missing? What length are the spacers?

In Step 3 -

What length are the M5 Low Profile bolts? I have 2 x 55mm and lots of 50mm

What is a Slot Washer? I can’t find anything labelled that way.
