I am speaking of ACIM motor.
You could make direction of rotation fixed. Like CW determines forward and CCW is reverse. Then if we need to install motor the wrong way we just swap phase wires, motor wont know the difference. That way we could use only signal A. Maybe you could make a menu in code so we can select encoder no. 4 as 1ch encoder?
