1000 words have been added :-)  I updated the wiki page 
(http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?GantryPlasmaMachine) with a system 
wiring schematic.  There is a pdf version and an Eagle (v6.1.0 - won't open in 
version 5) .sch file.  Follow toc link "2.4 Wiring Diagram".  I also added our 
Mesa 7i43 (400k version) firmware files.

The only thing missing from the schematic (I believe) is a small circuit that 
provides noise filtering on the step/dir, and IO lines between the Granites and 
Mesa cards.  As soon as I round up my notes on that I will add it.
