Re: Motor using Encoder as Limit Switch?

Thanks for the input Mark and Alan. The mechanism it is on is a table that can be elevated by a motor for the shooter. We have limit-switches in place, but a couple of our mentors would feel more comfortable with having an encoder control the max and min movement.
