There really isn't any issue I know of with using step/dir with encoder feedback. (I currently am with a 5i25/7i85s combo.) And having the encoder feedback can be nice for tuning the drives, if the drive's set up software doesn't provide any internal "scope" feature.

The installation makes use of the STEP/DIR signals currently but with no encoder feedback. I intend to use the Mesa 7I95 to replace the Chinese controller. My question is: Is it ok to use the STEP/DIR feature of this servo pack with encoder feedback to LCNC or should I go the Analog route and redo the complete system making use of the 7I97.
