    Need a tach sensor to Interface with Mach 3

    I have tried building the Shumatech tach addon but I cannot get it to function correctly. Is there one that is already made that I can buy....?

    You could always try a 3 channel quadrature encoder, the third channel is the index pulse and I think Mach3 can use it for showing RPM.
