Re: Interesting cRIO delays
The problem that we ran into with the regular code is that we were not seeing all of the data. Our encoders have 256 pulses per rotation and at ~1000 rpm the cRio was losing pulses. Therefore we figured that DMA would be a good choice to not lose any pulses (which would screw up rate). We are just having a delay problem which may or may not be related to the DMA. Anyone have any explanation for the twitchy robot?
