Folks,
for the first time builders - if you intend to buy a ready made PP cable then be aware - chk the resistance between individual pins in between the two ends.
The reason being that - I had bought a ready made PP cable and my router was missing steps (the one with servos) For almost 2 weeks I was not able to trouble shoot the problem.
Finally one of my friends suggested replacing the PP cable to a hand made one.
Resistance on the readymade one was 3 ohm and I made one with a 20 core 0.25mm dia which had a resistance of only 0.03 ohm,
and then voila the machine worked perfect!
SO folks again chk the resistance of the PP cable if you are buying a readymade one.
