Re: Misbehaving encoders

Do you remember the exact voltages you were seeing for high and low? They should be close (within a volt, for sure) to 5V and 0V, respectively. Are you sure you saw the change on *both* encoder outputs?

Your code looks good. You could try changing the decoding type to Encoder::k1X and seeing if that changes anything. Then try hot swapping DI 2 and 3 and seeing if you get anything (this forces the cRIO to only examine one channel at a time).
