[etherlab-users] Enhanced mode for EL5101

[Roland Pastorino]

Hi,

As I wrote in my previous message, I didn't try to set up the EL5101
in enhanced mode as the only thing I wanted to do was to use the 32
bit encoder.
Subsequently I cannot provide you with more details. If I have to do
it in the near future I will keep you posted.

Best Regards

Roland
