      On my s7 I have installed a Vevor DRO with bulky linear scales.
      On the cross slide I would like to replace it with a magnetic linear scale like that of mDRO.
      I wonder if any of you have managed to install a magnetic linear ladder on a Chinese DRO.

          While waiting for someone better than me to answer, I'm doing research to better understand how the signals travel from the linear scale to the digital player. I think this can be useful to all users who want to reduce the encumbrance of the linear stairs mounted on the cross slide
          From the Chinese sites I have drawn the connection diagrams of the optical and magnetic scales. So far it seems that the pins are compatible.

            Hello, I bought a used M-DRO on ebay. Only the crosslide part.
            I need help. Do any of you have the installation measurements MyFord Super7? Thank you.

                  I have pics in my album setting up magnetic dro and is fitted to a Chinese dro. It all works fine.
