Did you opt for a single touch resistive (good) or a multi touch capacitive (problematic)?

On my systems I use one 10A D curve breaker for each power supply. You need to upsize breakers for inductive loads due to inrush current

Reverse the logic of the probe detect input

Yes, correct. DB25 header at 5v

You haven't provided the model number for the drives, but virtually all stepper drives should be connected as 5v to the DB25 header

Why breakout 120vac when all of the devices you mentioned will run more efficiently on 240vac? I may in fact do so. It's not like there's much power being consumed within the control box, but duly noted. I do have several 115V outlets on the box already for various items, some of which do require 1...

Make sure that your vcarve file Z reference (zero) is the same as you set it at the machine

I'm now wondering if you're referring to the HLFB signals and possibly jumpering them on the green 2-pin connectors...

This excerpt from my manual should clear that up:
