Sorry about that, I did mean the counting in the code. I don't know the exact model, but we use a magnetic tooth counter and feed that signal directly into the Jaguar.

As I said earlier, it is a matter of if you want to go through the crio or through the Jaguar. We decided to use the Jaguar because even with the loops on the CRio, you must put in a delay of some sort, and less response time equals more consistent settling speed when using a shooter wheel.
