Step 1: Connect the X1 motor and encoder cables

Connect the X1 motor and encoder cables (highlighted orange in the image below) to the X1 motor and encoder on the right side of FarmBot (when looking at the device from the back). The electronics box will be attached to this side in a later step.

Step 2: Connect the X2 motor and encoder cables

Connect the X2 motor and encoder cables (highlighted orange in the image below) to the X2 motor and encoder on the left side of FarmBot (when looking at the device from the back) by feeding the cables through the slots in all of the horizontal cable carrier supports along the gantry main beam.
