If you only have two gears then it is probably ideal. For more than 2 gears there are other options, but for some reason none have been accepted into the main package. If you have a spindle encoder then it is reasonably easy to work out the gear ratio. Reset the encoder counts from halcmd then turn the input shaft 10 turns while watching the encoder.position pin with a halmeter. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming!
