Alright, Dragging this back up.
A knockoff Omron encoder showed up in the mail, well I
assume It's a knockoff at this price. Mounted it, wired it
up. But it's on the back of the mill and geared 68/55 to
the actual spindle output.
This sounds like a really bad idea. If on a lathe, it will
make it impossible to do multi-pass threading.
On a mill, it will be less bad, but make it impossible to do
peck tapping, although one-pass tapping should still work.
You could just skip the index pulse on the encoder and add
another sensor to pick up the index off the spindle somehow.
