Thanks again!
To clarify, you have your 1KW supply outputting to both of your 3HC boards and you 6HC board in parallel to divide the current and you have your current limited by running M906?
Yes. They are daisy-chained via the screw terminals. Also, power supply has many output terminals so can wire each directly. Yes, limit power with M906 in config.g. You often find that you don't need or want full current on large motors. Also pay attention to idle current. Should be low unless holding a load.
This question will show my inexperience, however it needs to be asked. If you hook up a 1KW power supply to the 6HC only, will it instantly blow the onboard breaker or will I have to pull current through it with a load to cause it to blow.
No, not a problem. Have to pull the power to blow the fuse. That takes some doing.
