Galil analog outputs working?

Sorry, I didn't answer you yet. I'm running the system open loop because the encoder is located on the spindle itself after the variable speed transmission (2J style milling head). The VFD is set up to run full speed at 10 volts, 1/2 speed at 5 volts, 0 at 0 volts.

I just tried something on my Galil DMC.
Maybe your still in servo mode, you may need to turn the axis off then
use the offset.

MOE (motor off E)
OFE=0 (I got 10.09 volts)
OFE=1 (8.08 volts)
OFE=1.5 (7.07 v)
OFE=5 (0.02 v)
OFE=9 (-8.02 V)

SHE ('servo here E' should put it back into servo mode i.e. needs encoder)

This should work on yours, if not try another axis then you'll know E is fried.
Hope this helps.
