grosh is an unknown quantity at this point
encoder values fluctuating considerably

As an offseason project we are trying to read the encoder rate from a vexpro ballshifter and use it to automatically shift when a desired rate is reached.

To test the rate we are using the LV sample program "encoder and motor". All values, but the encoder rate, show up consistantly. The encoder rate (deg/sec) values fluctuate between 50-1000+ when at full speed. How do I make the range of encoder rates more useful? The encoder is a Usdigital e4p 250-250-0-0-0-0.

-Thanks in advance
