General Mach Discussion / Rotary spindle encoder setup
« on: May 22, 2019, 04:31:22 AM »
Good day
I bought a Optimum lathe that has the stepper motors fitted by Optimum.
It however did not have a spindle encoder for spindle speed / thread cutting.
I received a rotary spindle encoder from Optimum and fitted it.
The rotary spindle encoder plugs in with the limit switches at the Ref Switch plug on the controller.
I would really appreciate if someone can help me with the setup of this.
