My spindle is driven by an Automation Direct GS2 drive. I am running it via Modbus over RS232. It seems to be working fine. I don’t have a spindle encoder installed. Modbus components in LinuxCNC are not real-time. I don’t know what that implies.

If you are controlling the speed of your spindle with LinuxCNC instead of just ON/OFF/DIR, how are you doing this? Step/Dir? 0V-10V PWM? ModBus? If ModBus RS232 or RS485? Some other way?
