Masso Elite MPG Right Angles Connector

I purchased a low cost 5v MPG from China without the 15 pin connector. Physically it appears identical to the Masso MPG. I was able to use Google Translate on the Chinese description to identify each color coded wire to its intended function. I did open the back case and confirmed the connections and as well confirmed with a multimeter. I will be soldering up the wires to a15 pin D shell connector. I was able to find a right angle connector housing and hoping it will fit in the Masso G3 Touch enclosure space. I won’t have my Masso Elite for awhile yet and was wondering if someone would measure the distance from the Masso MPG connector to the RH edge of the aluminum backplate. Somehow having an open connector without its housing seems a little amateurish to me.

I also ordered the pendent without the E-stop button. I felt having the larger E-stop button on the controller close at hand was more practical for me.

Following along on this. Don’t have mine yet either, but I was planning on a right angle adapter on the masso mpg and wonder about it fitting in there.

From the face of the connector on the G3 to the inside of the case is 1"

The should have mounted the G3 90 Deg to how they did it, would be better for wiring .

Thanks for taking the effort to measure. My right angled connector measures 1 1/4". Doesn’t look like it will work. Will look for another one now.

No problem also the 1" is the max, you would want one a little shorter that that, have you thought of printing one?

Would that be a easier or better fix? Just turn the g3?

Plenty of room to not sure why Masso didn’t other than you can read “G3” easier the way it is
You would need to tap new homes in the case

I have access to a 3D printer but I would need an stl file from somewhere. I have no skills or design software at this point. I’m not going to rotate the G3. Just not that important.

I’ll tackle that for everyone’s sake once I have mine in front of me for reference.
