My set up seems to have developed a glitch.
in motor tunings the speeds are correct,Ive checked that with motor rpm /measurements.
But the DRO's on the home page are approx 32% too fast.
this is something that has happened recently,ive tried reinstalling but that hasnt worked.
 any Ideas?

you could quite simplty tape a photo transistor over the gecko led and use it to trigger an imput to mach, same theory as an optoisolator.
