Talon SRX Encoder Type? Closed Loop Problems
Reading in the CrossRoad manuals, it references using a 360 CPR encoder for the hardware requirement for the Talon SRX. We have a 1000 CPR US Digital Encoder. We don't see a way to change the encoder type or (2x,4x) sampling in the Talon SRX. Did we over look something?

Also, is there a sample of Labview somewhere that shows a Talon SRX in closed loop position mode? We are not able to get a close loop mode on the Talon working yet, which might be related to our feedback sensor type and configuration at a hardware level.
