Hi all. I'm looking to retrofit my SuperMax controlled by an Anilam Crusader M to LinuxCNC. I saw a post on this mailing list back in '09 regarding the pinouts for the A10 linear encoder. I looked up the SENC125 and between the info below it seems straight fwd. But, I was wondering if anyone had the pinouts for the A10, so I wouldn't be left guessing? I've looked around for this pretty hard and am struggling. This morning on the way into work I called Jerry at Anilam (847.490.7828x4828) only to find he left for vacation TODAY and returns on 8/20. I don't need the info right away and can wait (Too many projects right now), but I'd like to put this piece of info to bed and move onto the next steps. I have the A10 version w/ the RED Sticker. Apparently, there were different colors.
As far as the conversion goes, I have bought a D525MW, installed 2.5.0 (Need to upgrade!) and need to go from there. I've run down one conversion of a Lagun where he connected the existing servo's. that was sweet because I can easily wire into the5i25/7i77 Mesa combo I bought. Looks straight forward, other than I'm a noob to LinuxCNC and Mesa. I consolidated the manual for the SENC 125 and Pat's info on http://www.ijohnsen.com/blog/archives/193 for future reference (so I don't forget or misplace it!). Also, there are some pix and a video on the site. Thanks, Mark Johnsen *Re: [Emc-users] Anilam linear encoder pinout …* From: EKCo Inc Don Stanley <ekco@em…> – 2009-11-09 15:14 Pat; I have the a SENC 125 T/E linear encoder supplied with a Anilam DRO. My wire colors are all different but the 5th wire is the R channel. I think they are sending position reference but haven't checked it out yet. It is on pin 8 of the 9 pin D connector.
