I'm running Gecko's servo drive's and have no problem at all !!
While setting everything up I had trouble with error's on my Z axis'
which turned out to be noise on this long line run. After talking to
Mariss and adding a line buffer, all is fine. It's not Mariss's fault
with noise on encoder lines causing faults and/or errors. In fact if
you go to US Digital's Encoder web site you will find a wealth of info
on this. Marriss did not have to help me trouble shoot or design my
mill, .... but he did ,... Thanks Mariss !!

As for out right faulting a drive ,.. I can do this every day ,.. just
by pushing my system. In fact I do just this to show some of my
customers the fault leds light up when error gets too great ( 64 thous
in my case ). They are impressed !!

R and D can be a tuff nut to crack. It's your choice ,..

Mariss did it right and in a big way and he did it right ,.. he built
the drives.. Not the software (high or low pulse) nor encoders (noise
??)nor Servo's Etc.

This is my two cents !! Again Thank Mariss
