Re: plastic strips for encoders

I don't think any of the red lion displays will work with the linear
encoders because the linear stips are 200 count and 360 count. The
X1,X2X4X10 multipliers don't work out to give the display the correct
reading. But R/L has surprised me before with new displays that do some
interesting things. I talked with US digital about a 250 count and a 500
count linear strip but no-joy, they don't have them.
