rpm from encoder

That rate is in pulse per second (if your distance per tick is set to the default of 1). You should be able to convert that to RPM by knowing how many pulses per rev for your encoder.

We converted it into rpm, but what should be a good time in ms to set the timer config in the begin too? Our indicator is twitching around so much we can't really read it

We are using DMA to read our encoders. Check out the DMA-Encoder example to implement this
