Re: Wiring Talon SRX PID w/ Beam Break Sensor

Thanks for the advice.
However, I'm not sure what you are suggesting.

In our current setup we are using an old AM 8" wheel with 6 thin spokes.
I believe we are calling a count 1 on/off cycle (open space / spoke).
We are thus getting 6 counts per revolution.

Are you suggesting that this setup will have problems with Talon PID or that we should define a count as open/spoke (leading edge) - spoke/open (falling edge) to give us finer data resolution?

As a note, we are currently spinning the flywheel at 3,000 rpm but would want to be capable of spinning at up to 6,000 rpm.

Dave
