Single GTS is intended to give you theoretical distance traveled on a wheel but you keep track of direction by knowing WHICH direction you are driving the motor.
IN other words if my PWM is > 127 and I get a signal I add to my counter... < 127 and I get a signal then I subtract from the count. Same with a relay driving a motor. if the forward direction is set and the interrupt occurs you add to the count...well you get the idea.
