    Alternative to Mitchell Electronics TI-5000

    Hi all I work at a repair shop and I'm looking to find an alternative for the mitchell TI-5000 encoder test system. The guys at mitchell have moved to a time based subscriber model (it used to be just a licence key and unlimited) and we don't see enough motors to get our moneys worth unfortunately we set up our shop after the switch over to subscription. Does anyone know of an alternative?

    Also on the same note I want to be able to run my motors. Mitchell provides the TI-3000 system to do this but again its subscription - I need a universal motor run system.

    Any thoughts?

    Yes, We are building one right now.
    We are using aS7-1500 and converting all signals to hall and then we are using a drive from AMC like mitchell.
    it is better you can them use TTL, Htl , resolver, Endat 2,1 - 2.2, hiperface and hiperface dsl, biss, drivecliq, mitsubishi, fanuc and etc.

    Curious has anyone used or heard of Octava Engineering before? Look to have similar repair equipment for servo motors.
