If you are using any of the input lines for things like homming switches etc. you must use a cat 5 cable to clear any noise problems. There is also a certain paired order you have to use,I can send it to anyone that needs it. This should clear up a lot of problems.
Are you talking about running your input lines thru your Motor Signals Plug. I run my inputs and Motor Signals seperatly.
As for size of motors if anything my Nema 42's are toooo big. This Is a retrofit on a old thermwood router that was designed to have about 800 more pounds on the gantry than is up there now..

Something else that shoud be done is to run a ground wire from the signal generatior to the control box this may help with noise and will stop the machine from creaping when sitting idol
When you say control box do you mean the computer? I have the geckos set to stay at full power even when at idel so they wont move I hope.
My motors run real ruff when doing alot of direction changes or alot of line segments no mater what speed. They run smooth in straigt lines or arcs or circles. Its just when they speed up and slow down.
What are you Feedramp ratings,start stop and countuinous countoring set at and what size motors,voltages and amprages are you running.
