The single speed gearboxes accept a s4 encoder on the back.

The dual speeds do not have any encoder mounts. What we prefer in a WCD config is to put the encoder on the wheel shaft. Every VersaShaft for the WCD comes with a 1/4 hole that allows encoder mounting.

I know manuals aren't released ATM. We are trying to have them done this weekend so teams have more information/how tos available to them.

Let me know if you questions.

Thanks so much for your quick answers. It happens that I just did a design with the single speed speed gearbox. So that works just fine.
