I plan to map the other controller card connections to RJ45 too. Will try to keep power on pin 1 and ground on pin 2, and put control signals on the rest. One sad issue is that the print head controllers -(DC motor, PWM and temerature) in total uses 9 pins - one to many for +(DC motor, PWM and themerature) in total uses 9 pins - one to many for the RJ45. :( Guess I will have to find another connector for these. I will have to keep an eye on the plans to make print heads hot-swapable, and see what kind of connector will be used there. +I decided to use one connector for the DC motor controller, and one +for the PWM and temperature controller. Here is the DC motor +controller pinout. Decided to keep the directions in one pair and the +PWM signals in another pair. +
