Re: PID control loop/Encoder question
Mr. Barello:
Have you successfully read quatrature encoders with the IFI?
The super high resolution with the wheel encoders is nice... but our team is having difficulties reading the second output pin on the wheel encoders. Do we not have access to these input pins? What would be the purpose of Process_Data_From_Local_IO() if it weren't to make it so as we could read digital io real-time. Why no real-time input reads if interrupts? We only seem to be able to read the direction of the wheel encoder if we spin the encoder shaft really, really slowly.

Any suggestions?
