Here's what I think you said, but I can't tell for sure:
1) Your 775 motor is connected to a gear box.
2) The output shaft of that gearbox is 1/2" diameter
3) There's a sprocket on the output shaft of the gearbox
4) There's a chain on that sprocket
5) That chain goes to a sprocket connected to the wheel
6) The wheel rides on a dead axle.
How and where do you plan to physically mount the encoder?
What is the gear ratio of the gearbox?
What is the tooth count on the two sprockets?
