Re: LabVIEW Encoder not reliably returning Rate

I did some testing last night:
I found that, after booting up the robot as flashed (1x, 1x) it worked fine for about 2 hours, only rebooting once to change the battery.

After it stopped working, nothing would fix it. Nothing. I rebooted several times and re-downloaded the code. I set the counter to average 2 samples, as advised in this thread, and it worked.

I didn't spend a whole lot of time testing, so I don't know if the problem will re-appear after use. I will try tonight.
