Oops, I completely missed the point of the question.

I think this should work:

except you will need a sensor for your AC, as you had planned, to feed
into the software encoder phase A. A diode bridge could give you 120Hz.
Then the encoder velocity output will go into a PID feedback input. The
PRM command will go into the PID command input. The PID output will give
you the value to feed to the throttle actuator (stepgen, pwmgen).
