7i39 is a Mesa BLDC motor drive. In this particular case the motor is a linear motor, but that is functionally equivalent to a bldc. LinuxCNC has at least 4 ways to interface to encoders, none of which need a micro-controller. I don't think I have seem you here before (but I have a terrible memory for names) so welcome to LinuxCNC if you are new. -- atp The idea that there is no such thing as objective truth is, quite simply, wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Better than sec?
