The instructions that come with the BitSetter are not very complete when it comes to installing the splitter PCB.
From the installation guide:
“After your cable is routed to the Carbide Motion Controller, re-install the controller cover or enclosure. Make sure not to pinch or accidentally loosen any of the cables.”
In order to address this design flaw I made a small wooden enclosure for the BitSetter splitter PCB. It attaches to the carbide motion controller enclosure cover with double stick tape. The enclosure is MDF, the cover is 1/4” plywood and 6-32 x ½” round head bolts secure the top to the enclosure. A few pieces of packing foam keep everything in place.
The cable / connectors that come with the BitSetter easily feed through the rectangular opening on the rear of the carbide motion controller enclosure and are long enough to reach the wooden enclosure.

Just out of curiosity, is there a reason you've opted for corner cut outs, please? Thank youwjt posted 4 years ago
My original design was to use bolts to attach the MDF enclosure to the carbide motion controller cover which is why there are cutouts in the corner of the cover. There are corresponding holes in the MDF enclosure. Afterwards I realized using double stick tape was much easier and so far has proved reliable.Robertsa1097 posted 2 years ago
Great plans simple build! Thank you for sharing! I spray-painted mine black to match the cover!You must be signed in to leave a comment.
