Hi all, I have made a diy enclosure, my question is does anyone know what type of cable is used to connect the lights and fan to the connector module so I can switch on - off from the control panel
Hi MalcolmEveson,
thge lights and fan are connectet with simple 2wire cables. But they were connectet to a box thats part of the Snapmaker enclousure and that box is connectet to the controller. Hope this helps
You don’t really want to do this.
You’re much better off with a physical switch and a separate power source.
With the SM enclosure you can’t have the lights on unless it’s powered on and you shouldn’t be swapping heads and unplugging things when it’s powered on.

Thanks for information, I will contact snapmaker support to see if I can buy the enclosure converter and power cable, I will be able to wire the lights and fan myself.
Have a look at octoprint, it has the feature you want
Were you able to purchase the enclosure converter and power cable separately?
