Re: Finding RPMs with encoder

Quote:
Where do you intend to mount the encoder
On the shooter wheel

Quote:
How fast will the encoder be spinning at your shooter operating point?
This may change but let's just say 3000 RPM

Quote:
Is the motor output shaft directly connected to the wheel? If not, describe the transmission.
It will be directly connected

Quote:
What motor and motor controller are you planning to use?
AndyMark RS775-5 with a Victor controller

Quote:
Will you be connecting the encoder to the RIO, or to the motor controller (if SRX)?
The RIO

Also, if possible, would you be able to provide a brief generalization of what each decoding type is used for?
