Re: "twinned"servos on 1 axis

Dan
the E-divide is "divides" the quadrature counts coming from the
encoder to the drive, in my case instead of needing 8000 steps per mtr
rev, I can divide by 4 and it will be 2000 steps
handy device to use since the SST doesn't do step multiplying

divide type encoders so I can't help there. I used stock E2 series.
