Remora - ethernet NVEM / EC300 / EC500 cnc board

mmmm, I don't think those servo drivers operate in open loop......

Looks like it has encoder feedback on the driver.
PAO+ PAO- PBO+ PBO- PCO+ PCO-
 11.      23.     12.      24.     13.       25
 Encoder feedback
 Used for the frequency-dividing output of encoder feedback, which will be provided for the host

It’s a K1 Series AC Servo Driver

yeah, if you use the servo driver feedback out, you can use it that way

How many encoders are supported on the ec500? Which wires would you use to relay back to linuxcnc?

probably a b c, not sure about sen. not sure if C is the same as Z/index though.
not sure the encoder status on the ec500, if its software encoder it should be 6 i think. Dont know where you guys ended up with the QEI encoder thing.
