Programming Shaft Digital e4p

Hey!
Our team wants to use a conveyer belt system to dump frisbees but we want it done automatically so we don't have to mess around with the joystick too much. We want like say if it takes 7 turns of the conveyer belt to dump the frisbee, we want the shaft encoder to detect when it turns seven times, and then reset.

What I'm asking is, how do I program all of this? I've looked everywhere online and on CheifDelphi and looked at the labview example but it just confused me. Maybe someone could show me how to program this for my specific situation? Thanks.

(Btw, we are using a US Digital E4P encoder)
