-Silicone wiring has been specified because it has a high strand count which means it has higher fatigue life. Silicone insulation withstands heat and is more flexible which is good in high movement applications. It is less prone to snagging on other wires or the walls inside the cable chain. Check your cable loom before installing the chains.

 PTFE or Heluflon wires are a premium option as they have a thinner insulation and a lower friction coefficient, which increases bending capabilities and decreases wear. But these advantages are most useful in printers that use cable chains. For printers with an umbilical cord cabling setup (V0 Toolhead, Legacy), they might be overkill. Automation cable such as IGUS can be used, but the minimum bend radius of the cable needs to be verified as the typical bend radius for Voron cable chains is very small.
 
-See the cable lengths and count section for specific counts. Do not downsize the hot end heater wires, they are oversized for safety reasons.

 You may add additional wires to your cable chains as a replacement in case of wire breaks. However, these cables will be heated/cooled and moved around as much as your live cables and may be broken already when you need them! So may be better to keep extra wires as spares outside of the printer.

 There are 3 basic options for identifying windings:
 1) Check the documentation.  Many motors come with a card which tells you what wire colors are on the same winding.  If there's no card, the manufacturer's website may have something.
 2) Use a multimeter: put your meter in "continuity" mode.  Pick one wire, and then find any other wire that shows continuity with it.  Those two wires are on the same winding. By process of elimination, it should be safe to assume the other two represent the other winding.

 ### Symptoms of miswired motors
 
 Traditionally, trying to move a stepper that's miswired, has either resulted in nothing happening, or a nasty buzzing sound.  However, recent versions of klipper will generally detect the miswiring, and simply shutdown.  If, during your motor checks, klipper immediately shuts down: check your logs.  If there is a wiring issue with your stepper, it will report something like

 For wiring the stepper motors, keep the same wire color sequence that your stepper motors came with and use that same sequence for all stepper motors in the printer.  If the BOM spec motors from StepperOnline are used, the wires should be in the color order as shown in the wiring diagrams.
 
-If the purchased steppers do not match the color order in the documentation, there is no need to rewire just to change colors.  There is not a "standard" wire color order for these parts. If the builder decides to reterminate to change connector types or whatever, be sure to use the same order as before. The spec motors also come with a datasheet or card so you can double check the work. One can also use a multimeter to find wire pairs in the motor by measuring continuity between leads. Each lead should have continuity to the other lead in its pair.

 ### Inductive Probe Wiring (V1, Trident, V2, Switchwire)
 
-The BOM spec PL-08N inductive probe (and the alterate Omron probe) that is used for Bed Mesh, Z Tilt Adjust (V1/Legacy) or Quad Gantry Leveling (V2) needs to be powered with 12-24V, not the typical 5V that is used for end stop switches.  This is critical because if powered with 5V the sense distance is reduced enough to cause a nozzle crash.

This is critical because if powered with 5V the sense distance is reduced enough to cause a nozzle crash.
 
 If not closely following the BOM spec, ensure that the inductive probe purchased is a normally closed (NC) version rather than normally open (NO).  The configuration cannot be changed as that is built specifically from the factory.  A normally open (NO) probe may cause crashes if a wire breaks.

 ### Endstop Wiring

+Endstops can be wired one of two ways: normally closed (NC) or normally open (NO).  For normally closed configurations, the endstop switch allows current to flow through when not triggered.  For normally open configurations, the endstop switch only allows current to flow through when triggered.
 
 While both of these configurations will work fine in an ideal world, normally closed (NC) configurations are more robust.  If a wire breaks or a terminal becomes disconnected, the printer will think the endstop has triggered and will stop movement before the toolhead crashes into the bed or frame. Note that you should always still observe the homing routine - an intermittent break in an X or Y wire can still result in a crash as the nozzle will drop to where it thinks the Z endstop is and instead hit the bed (not applicable to V0 or Switchwire).
 
-Wiring mechanical endstop switches for NC operation is easy as the BOM spec switches have 3 pins exposed.  With a multimeter, probe each combination of the three pins until a pair is found that has continuity (<10 ohms resistance) when the switch is not triggered (normal state), but does not have continuity (>10M ohms resistance) when the switch is triggered (depressed).  Typically the outer two pins are the NC pins, but should be verified prior to installation.

+## Connection Using Separate Power Supply
+* Since the MKS Monster 8 V1.0 board does not produce enough amps to power the Raspberry Pi directly, the Raspberry Pi can be powered by an independent power supply.
+* Use at least 24awg wire for V+ and GND connections to the Pi's power supply
+* Tie all the DC 0V (typically labelled V-) lines for all the DC power supplies together to ensure that all power supplies have the same voltage reference.
+* The below diagram, shows the connections for both the "Separate Power Supply" connections and "UART serial" connections.  If "Separate Power Supply" connection is wanted and "UART serial" connection is not wanted, then only use the 5V and GND connections from the diagram below (i.e. the TX and RX lines are not needed).

+## Control
+
+* Voron Design recommends using USB to control the Monster 8, which simply requires connecting a USB-A to USB-C cable between the Monster 8 and Pi.
+* The option also exists to use a UART serial connection from the Pi header, in place of the USB.  If you prefer this option, please see the wiring diagram located above in [Connection Using Separate Power Supply](#connection-using-separate-power-supply) and use the instructions below on the Raspberry Pi.  You will want to perform the instructions below **after Mailsail/Fluidd is installed on the Raspberry Pi.**
