hey peter just a quick question on this spinx1 card this looks just what I need just want to confirm a few things
my fanuc drive takes a 0-10v signal. 10v comes out from drive and it has a wiper and 0v just like a POT. I know I can use a 7i76 easily to run it. just checking that the spindx1 is the same idea. I saw reference in the manual to a 5-18v input voltage from drive. since my input voltage is 10v am I good to go? the price is right on that little card and it looks perfect. I might use a spare 7i76 now with the 7i77 and replace it once make my next order of mesa cards regards Andrew On Tue, Nov 3, 2020 at 4:42 AM Peter C.
