For all that know and are willing to help,
I don't see much information on the Mesa 5i20-5i22 setup with emc2. This is one of the options I am looking at for a retrofit on my bridgeport mill. I will be replacing a heidenhain tnc 135. I have linear scales on XY and Z axis. I believe that I have stepper motors on all tree axises as well. I am not sure about encoders as the control is limited in it's capablities.
Is the code/hardware implementation of this ready for prime time?
Am I able to use my linear encoders to improve precision?
Will I need to add rotary encoders to the motors if I do not have them?
Where do I find more information on this setup (googled alot not much detail out there)?
Thanks to all who know and answer......
Jim
