also, do i have to use kevin's code with all of the initialization? or could i make my own based upon the phase a and b on the digital inputs?

*EDIT*
is there also a way i could have the encoder counting in the background of my code? or does it do that already....if not, how (if possible).

from looking at the code, do i also have to reset the encoder count? do i also have to manually make the ENCODER_x_COUNT increment every time the encoder ticks?
