Wiring Stepper Motors
1.
Plug the 4-pin stepper motor extension cables
labeled “Z,” “Y1,” “Y2,” and “X” into their
respective ports along the bottom of the
controller board. Be sure to match the labels on
the cable with those of the board. See
Figure 8-8
.

Carefully gather all seven connected cables into a
bundle and direct them into the notch at the top
of the controller unit.

Use the 2mm hex key, one (1) M3x6mm flanged
button head screw and the three (3) thumb
screws to re-install the controller unit cover.
Connect the Stepper Motors
Shapeoko XXL comes equipped with four stepper motors:
X, Y1, Y2, and Z. Each motor connects to the controller
unit via a gray extension cable installed in the wiring
harness at the factory. Each cable has been labeled with
its proper connection. The X- and Z-motor extension
cables exit the X-Axis drag chain behind the Z-Plus and the
Y1- and Y2-motor cables exit the Y-Axis drag chain at the
Y1-carriage. See
Figure 8-9
.
Connecting Z-Axis Stepper Motor
The Z-motor sits atop the Z-Plus. Its extension cable exits the
head of the X-Axis drag chain.
1.
Connect the black Z-motor leads to the gray 4-pin
extension cable labeled “Z.” See
Figure 8-10
