Hmmm is it possible to stream data while running the test? Might be helpful in diagnosing. Otherwise I'd just hook up all the measurement equipment you've got


I connected Pin1 of the AD2S1210 back to GND and the board is back to acting like it was originally: 4 Index pulses per motor revolution. Thinking about it more, would it be possible to run the ACController code in this configuration? Would it just run at 1/4 speed, or would it require me to change the "encoder-ticks" config setting?
