dwent,
Mach 3 does support MPG's, I'm also looking into using computer handwheel control but have not got there yet. You may want to download the mach 3 users manual and a demo version and play around with it. I did find mpg encoders a www.mouser.com page 1200 of their e-catalog. They do have one unit the gives 64 pulses per rpm, but it's close to $30. Does anyone have a better source?
Hope this helps
Ron
