"try linedrivers."
A very interesting idea....Thanks Craig!
I looked further into the settings and it seems in addition to step and direction I can set S/D inputs for EncA/EncB with Follow so...perhaps that's an possibility....checking with Schneider this morning....can I drive them with the pokeys on an encoder setting is the big question I guess.
I ran my general internal app again across a wide array of MS Settings from the default 256X down to 2X and while the drive certainly changed characteristics and pitch it never lost a bit of accuracy...something very odd going on because it is just so clocklike predictable.
