Thx. I have the mistu software, but have not used it yet, however the J2S series drive has a 4 digit DRO that can be set to display just about any data in real time, including encoder feedback, so I can monitor that without the software. The J2S is the first servo drive I have used that I can say I am completely satisfied with . . . so far . I would describe the J2S similarly to how you rate the Allan Bradley; 'very little noise'.
I will be needing more AC servos so I am just collecting info on the options. The Mistubishi J3 is a freak! Too new though, and not readily avaialble from the junkyards yet.
