Installing the Thermistor, LED and Power Wires
Before you begin wiring up the Onyx, please place a short length of Kapton tape over the
thermistor hole in the center of the heated bed. This will protect the top of the thermistor as well as
prevent RTV from leaking on the top of the board.
Once you've got the Kapton applied, open up the small package that contains the thermistor and
the PTFE tubing. Cut two 1/4" tubes from the PTFE tubing and slide them on to the thermistor leads.
You'll then bend the thermistor the same way you did when prepping the hot end.
See Fig. 5B-3 for an example of what you need to do.
