Got the Z axis wired too
 

It was kind of bad. The hex hole oin the setscrew on the encoder wheel
stripped, because the thread around it was not done all the way. I had
to do some stupid stuff to get it to go. I think that I will ask US
Digital for another wheel just in case. But it does seem to work.

I had an encoder wheel get just barely, imperceptibly, loose. Drove me nuts
with servo instability and repeatability issues.
