Warning! before attempting to home the Z axis, be sure the flexible steel build plate is installed. The inductive sensor will not pick up the bed correctly without it and you will not get a proper bed detection and will place strain on the gantry as the bed pushes up against it.
On my machine with Orbiter V2 filament Sensor, the ^!PFx (where x is the specific print head), caused the sensor to give a false positive when no filament was present. I had to change it to read ^PFx to indicate correct status.
I could not get the lone yellow wire to stay connected. It kept falling out. Removed it from the single pin housing and placed it, along with the pin from print head 1 in a 3 pin dupont housing I had laying around. Going with this stop gap measure until proper JST-XH kit arrives in mail. did similar procedure for print heads 2 and 3.
The gantry motor cables are twisted. The twisted gantry cables are also much longer than the z motor cables which are flat. I used the wrong cables and had to reroute the cables after discovering the flat ones are TOO short. I see the step after this does mention to use the flat cables for the Z motors.
I have the Orbiter V2 Filament Sensors. From the instructions, it is unclear how the PTFE tube is retained in the sensor. From research elsewhere https://www.orbiterprojects.com/orbiter-... and misc Youtube videos, it appears the tube is free floating and and not captured at the sensor end. Can someone at Makertech kindly confirm? Thanks.
Later in the assembly, when I need to wrap the wires from the tool changer. I come up short and the wrap isn't long enough to route as shown. It would be helpful here to specify how long the remaining piece should be after this cut.
Pay close attention to the items below the blue highlighted line. You will need to go down to some of these lines and toggle them to match.

If you don't see the end stop states reported in the status area below the command line, scroll up or down. It may be hidden out of view
Thank you for letting me know. I was concerned and about to report this in!
