Re: code example to set 4x encoder decoding mode mode
Workbench Update 3 now normalizes the returned distance from an Encoder::Get() or Encoder::GetDistance() call. So 1X, 2X, 4X doesn't effect the magnitude of the result, only the resolution. You can use GetRaw() if you want the unnormalized result for some reason.

Thus I believe your encoders are really configured in 4X mode, but you are reading the normalized results.
