Re: dirty encoder
Marshal,
Dirt can cause an error albeit a small one if it stays with the wheel and doesn't jamb under the emitter or receiver permanently. If it amounts to one or two errors per rotation then you still end up with 350+ good data bits per rotation. You should try to keep debris away from the encoders and cap them after you mount the wheel to the shaft.
I think the dirt would have to be fairly large to fool the device though.
