      Hi! Im using 2 cat 5e cables for all wiring to the x carriage. But now i realize this solution ends up with one wire to little.
      So the question is, can i wire something with common ground/ vcc?
      The functions needed is:
      heater 4 wires (using 4 wires for more area)
      termistor 2 wires
      hotend cooler 2 wires (on when >60c)
      part cooler 2 wires
      stepper motor 4 wires
      capacitive sensor 3 wires.
      17 total

      The cat 5e has 8 cable giving me 16 total.
      It must be possible to wire the fans to common ground/ vcc?
      Any other suggestions?

      Thanks!

        You can use a common positive (V_FAN) wire for both fans.

            Can you post photos of the wiring solution? I am searching for wago terminals to wire the carriage, but any suggestion is welcome.
            Thanks
