Hi,

My problem solved as follows:

As I described everything was good. In diagnostics screen all inputs and outputs worked fine. The reason Mach4 didn't display the actual RPM was just a screen set misconfiguration. I clicked the "Edit Screen" menu item then selected the "Spindle RPM" text field. Then in the "DRO Code" property I just selected "Spindle True RPM" then save.

After that Mach4 started to display the true RPM that comes from the encoder.

Solved this by an accident took my 2 weeks. Dang!

Your 2 week accident saved me a ton of time.  I had already spent most of a day pulling my hair out over this.  Thanks for posting your solution.  Worked like a champ!
