7i96s + dcs100A was created by Masiwood123
@PCW
Can you look at the link, I have these drivers that convert digital step/dir to analog+-10v. I am planning to retrofit a lathe, I would buy a 7i96s, so I am interested in the opinion of whether it is possible to pair the 7i96s with this driver, I only need two analog outputs to control the Siemens servo amplifiers. so in order not to buy 7i77, it is more profitable for me to buy 7i96s. thanks in advance

It will work, but I think the best option is mesa. You will have no free encoder inputs. You won't be able to do precision homing. You will not have a closed loop in linuxcnc

From a quick glance, i would avoid those.
7i96S+7i83 for analog and 7i85 if you need encoder feedback.

yes, to understand you completely, I already used dcs100a via mach3, but here I would like linuxcnc, and now, this driver has a closed loop in its software where the PID is programmed and set in relation to the motor. (servo tune).. in in this case the mesa 7i96s would have control to home switches, and it would have spindle control, but it would have an open loop to the driver. thanks for the advice, I wanted to use these drivers because I already have them.

thanks a lot for that Tom, I'm looking at the current profitability, I think in that case it will cost me the same as the combination of 7i96s+7i77.

If they worked with Mach3, they will work with LinuxCNC for sure, it just gets pulse and direction from LinuxCNC so consider it a normal stepper system.
The manual is detailed so should be easy enough as you have plenty of experience.

yes, they work great on mach3, but linukcnc is safer for me because it won't ``continue working'' if something bad happens, even though these drivers have a certain encoder error tracking protection. maybe it's easiest for me to try, because I already have the 7i96s and the configuration on that earlier lathe, so let me try. I would be able to connect, what worried me the most was that maybe the frequency step/dir signals or whatever with the 7i96s are not compatible with this driver.

Why do you think it won't be compatible? I don't see anything to worry about. You can just buy an extra board for the encoders and you will be able to close the loop in LinuxCNC

I had to ask because I don't understand the core of electronics at all, my level is that I know how to connect the wires, set the pid and so on.. I thought that maybe by chance there is some limitation related to the 7i96s in terms of the digital signals it would give to this driver.
