Gene,
I guess you could understand why all the talk about gearboxes and 2
speeds and motors speeding in multiple K revs was confusing me a lot
when I thought you were talking about the Sheldon.
How close was my remembrance to about right?

Gene,
If we are talking about the sheldon you got from Tom as I recall, it had:
(These are very approximate numbers based on an admittedly faulty memory)
a) Motor pulley about 4 inches
b) countershaft Pulley (input cone pulley shaft) about 10 inches or so.

How many wires are there between the drive and the motor?
If it is only the 3 power cables then perhaps a VFD would work,
because any

Thats because the a/b signals ARE coming from a 1000 line encoder on the
MOTOR. BUT the index is coming from an encoder on the SPINDLE. IOW, two
different encoders. The i
I'm Stil not understanding. Gene's math is still not clear.
Is the encoder on the motor or the spindle? If the goal is to do
threading it must be on the spindle or the index pulse is not going to work.
If on the motor then what is the gear ratio?
The trick is to convert FIRST to revolutions p

There are more "850" clones on eBay then you can shake a stick at. The
good thing is they seem to use interchangeable replacement parts. Do make
sure this is the case before you buy. Or if yo are really worried buy a
spare heating element from the same seller.

Ok, I looked trough your previous posts. It appears that you are getting
7161.17 counts per spindle revolution. Your max frequency in that case
is (7161.17 * 3000) / 60 = 358058.5Hz. 358kHz is well within the range
of the 5i25.
What is your encoder filter set to?

Hi Gene,
Are you sure your maths is correct?
1000*7161.17=761,170 line/rev
So your drive ratio is 7161.17:1? At 3000rpm your encoder will be
spinning at 3000*7161.17. That's over 21 million RPM!
