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.
