Are you looking at the top of the board or the bottom? I believe the header should be 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 from the top of the board. 6 is +5, 7 is A, 8 is B, 9 is index, and 10 is ground (as you observed). If you have the pinout reversed, though, then they are all connected to the wrong pins. I'm anxious for you to get beyond this encoder problem, because I'm eager to learn about driving linear motors from LinuxCNC and 7I43's. I hope to be doing that myself in a few weeks, with some small linear motors I'm building. -- Ralph ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.
