    Panasonic A4 series 750W servo motor
    I want to know how the servo motor controller feeds back the position signal to the Arduino board.
    The underneath is a servo electrical engineering to connect a people's diagram.
    The following is the interface diagram of the servo motor.

    Why feed back the encoder signal to Ard? Just give the driver a pulse signal.

    The forum code I download now is designed to compare the direction and angle of the motor by connecting a potentiometer to the 5V of the Arduino board.
    If you use a servo controller now, you don't want to use a potentiometer to connect to the servo motor and then feed it back to the Arduino board.
    The forum estimates that there is a code for directly outputting the pulse signal to the driver as you mentioned. But due to my bad English, I don’t know that it is :(
    Please also help find it~Thank you~

    Sorry,I don't use the Arduino board to control,so i don't learn the code.Maybe i will meet this in the further and i will touch you then.

    SCN electric cylinder do you use?
    Do you use SCN5?
    Or some other mode?
    Or what other mode?
