 +====ET10 MPG connection through encoder inputs====
 +
 +The following diagram shows an example of an MPG wheel connection to the ET10 controller (encoder #5):

 +{{:mycnc:et10-connection-encoders-mpg-001.png}}
 +
 +In order to set up this encoder to change some values within the software (such as jog overspeed, motion overspeed, etc), the user can go into Settings > Config > Inputs/Outputs/Sensors > Connections, and add a new connection or edit an existing one.
 +  * In the **Source** field, select Encoder. 
 +  * For the **parameter**, type in some parameter 100-112 for fast encoders (0-16 is reserved for slow encoders). In order to check which particular encoder is used, the user can go into Settings > Config > Hardware > Encoders and note which encoder value changes as the MPG wheel is being turned. For example, for fast encoder #5, parameter 105 will be chosen. 
 +  * For **destination**, select Item.
 +  * For **destination parameter**, input the parameter you require (for example, jog-overspeed)
 +  * Set K to 1, leave K0 blank. 
 +The settings window should then look similar to this:

 +{{:mycnc:mpg-encoder-setup-002.png}}
 +
 +This will allow us to use the MPG wheel connected to the encoder inputs to change a number of myCNC parameters.
