The middleman board has XA+/- and BA+/- (4 total endstop pins) while the smoothingboard only has 3.

What do I wire?

Aren’t those for the X stepper motor?

Probably
Will look again tonight :S

I thought that EStY and EStX are for the (E)nd (St)ops Y & X

@Ariel_Yahni_UniKpty Alright, M1 is X and M2 is Y?

ESty and EStx are endstop connections connected to Smoothie Xmin and Ymin respectively. You have to decide how you provide 5V and grnd to the middleman (I plan to use 5v and grnd from the Xmin connector).
XA-, XA+, XB-, XB+ are X stepper connections connected to Smoothie M1.
The Y stepper is a separate cable from the middleman connected to Smoothie M2.

@donkjr I’ve never crimped a cable before. The smoothieboard isn’t labelled as far as pin 1, etc is there a specific order?

What are you trying to wire, the end stops or the steppers?
