Except that the encoder is not a TTL output encoder but a differential line driver model encoder:

Automation Direct sells a very similar encoder but with single ended TTL outputs. The jumpers on the Mesa card has to correspond to the encoder type (differential line driver or TTL) otherwise nothing will work right. Dave On 6/9/2012 3:08 PM, Peter C.
