    Hi guys, I am also building @Ronan Design amazing 6DOF with the 24V - 350W motors and 2x 1200W power supplies.
    Control box same dimensions and mostly same components as original but with 3x dual channel 20A Cytrons MDD20A due to the bigger motors and additional 4 channels relay module as per @Martwana , for which I please ask the electrical plan to connect this one :sos. And then planning to use @OrtiMai @Sebastian2 modified code.
    I will post a quick photo showroom of my build if @Ronan Design grants permission with only photos and major changes to original design like bigger motors and my fixed 8020 extrusion profile rig on top, hopefully it will move all that and the extra Xmas food :D

    That sounds well designed, with the right thoughts and conclusions. I wish you a good progress.

    Hi @Ronan Design in you download pack there is no instructions on how to connect the Deek-robot meters to the motors / power supply. I am still a noob on electrical stuff, considering I am using the 350W motors with 2x 1200W 24V power supplies and 3x Cytron MDD20A could you please advise how to connect them properly to ensure correct readings?
    I also have the impression that these meters might not be good enough for the 350W motors. I share my ECB and the deek-robot connection diagram I found online.
    Thanks in advance

    Are you familiar with how to measure current and voltage?
    There are videos on youtube how to connect them. Pay close attention to them and make sure, you understood how to aviod a high potential difference in your measurement system. Otherwise your cable will explode. If you're not sure, your welcome to share your drawing and we can try to review it.

    Hi
    Hi Schorsch,
    if you have a Cube of 2m in each direction, you should be good.

    Feel free to write me a private message in German as well.
