Magnetic scales on new gantry mill

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Hi all,

I am designing a new machine and would like to use Ditron magnetic scales on X & Y. 
  • The Y axis has dual motors, should I use a scale on each side or just one?
  • Any recommendations of mesa boards to use here? 7i95T + 7i84U or 7i96 + 7i85
  • Whats the process for setting this up in LCNC?
  • I don’t believe these scales are differential signal, should I look for that?

    Many thanks for your help!

I hadn't gotten to the "asking for help" part yet. I only started last night. ;-) And much of that was trying to work around bugs in pncconf. Yes, I'll report them.

It's definitely a programming language -- you just find it easy, since apparently you have a background in electronics. I do too. But there's a reason circuits are designed graphically, and not in text files -- they're easier to understand that way.
