Default Some success with a servo drive/tachometer mode

for 50 years now in motion control systems.

Jon, my encoders are sinusoidal and thus I believe them to be
incompatible.

Well, yes, we went through that, but you said you were going to install
new encoders soon.


Yes, I have new encoders.

I think that tach mode is still within the KISS principle.
