    differential encoders with Gecko G320

    Hello,

    Can anyone tell me if it is possible to use differential encoders with G320 servo drives? Even if it means using the dif. encoders as ttl encoders if that's possible.

    you can get some recievers that will convert the diff. signal to single ended. Then they will work fine. Watch not to exceed geckos encoder ma limit if you do then you need a seperate 5volt supply
