With the Colorlight 5A-75E now cooperating it needs to be determined how many headers need to be 'rewired' for input, plus extra for further expansion. There are 6 unique pins per header, plus 8 shared.

Inputs

Function Quantity Notes
Home Switches 5 X, Y, Z, A, B
Tool Changer 3 Home + Left/Right Rotation End Switches
Tool Touch-off 1 Use shared pin?
E-Stop 1 Use shared pin?
Total 8 - 10 Using Shared - All unique

Inputs (Maybe)

Function Quantity Notes
Encoders 10-20 2 * 5axis for single, 4 * 5axis for diff
Total 10 - 20 Using Shared - All unique

Outputs

Function Quantity Notes
Steppers 15-18 (Pulse + Dir + EN) * 5 Axis (or 6 with toolchanger)
Watchdog 1
Motor Enable 1 Probably only 1 for PWM speed control
Motor Direction 1 Maybe?
Total 18

Common Pins

Function Quantity Notes
Tool Touch-off 1 In
E-Stop 1 In
5V 1/2 Out
3V3 1/2 Out
Total 4-6
