Encoders for Allin1
We are converting a system that was built with an Anilam control It had used 5 wire incremental encoders. Is there any chance that we can use these encoders on the Allin1 controller? Or do we have to buy new differential encoders?

Re: Encoders for Allin1
You can purchase integrated circuits that convert single ended quadrature outputs into differential outputs and create your own converter boards. Alternatively, there are a few companies that make such converters for retail sale.
However, you may find that new encoders with higher resolution would be a much better solution. In fact, you would probably be better off in the long run replace the outdated servos and encoders on the machine with new.
