Marius, You need to see what kind of encoder the Yaskawa motor has on it. I recall many of them were serial w/ a proprietary Yaskawa protocol, which would make it hard to run the encoder directly back to the mesa.
Possibly, the servo pack has an 'encoder out' feature that you could run back to the mesa. Sometimes those encoder out features are standard quadrature A, B, Z outputs... That would work well.
