Re: Trouble running absolute and quadrature encoders on same Roboclaw
Just re-tried it w/ firmware updated to 4.1.27 and using BasicMicro Motion Studio. Same behavior as before. Only additional change I noticed is that when I swap the encoder channels in software, which (somehow) allows me to read the absolute encoder but not the quadrature, the absolute encoder value...

Trouble running absolute and quadrature encoders on same Roboclaw
I'm having trouble running 2 motors, one with quadrature encoders, and the other with a potentiometer on the same Roboclaw 2x7A. Motors: - Pololu 37Dx73L gearmotor - Actuonix linear actuator with potentiometer Wiring matches examples given in the documentation: Quadrature encoder is hooked up to ENC...
