In today's video, I provide an overview of my strategy for wiring the electronics in this DIY CNC build. Emphasizing safety, I discuss the importance of adhering to regulations in your area and stress the necessity of having a qualified electrician inspect and approve your wiring. I describe the routing of my mains input, highlighting its passage through an emergency stop, a 2-gang selector switch, and two separate fuses. Circuit one powers the VFD, while circuit two handles the rest of the electronics.

Additionally, I explain how to calculate the power supply wattage required for your NEMA motor setup using the formula provided by Stepper Online. The subsequent segment covers the wiring of both the 24V and 36V power supplies, followed by a detailed explanation of connecting CL57T Stepper Drivers to Closed Loop NEMA 23 Stepper motors. I illustrate how to identify motor and encoded wire pins based on wire colors and guide the viewer through connecting them to the driver. Demonstrating the connection of Pulse and Direction pins to the Mach 3 Breakout Board, I delve into a thorough discussion of the board's 5V and 24V sections.

A desktop demonstration showcases the control of the NEMA motor via Mach 3 software. Subsequently, I guide viewers on setting up and configuring Mach 3 on a Windows PC, making the process straightforward by providing instructions for pasting in the necessary files as detailed in the video.

The final section focuses on connecting a NPN NO proximity sensor to the Mach 3 Breakout Board, illustrating its functionality in detecting a surface within the Mach3 software.
