VI - Get Encoder Rate in Engineering Units

I can't be the only one who's missing this functionality from the standard Encoder blocks. This VI takes an encoder reference, gets the ticks/second, and multiplies it by the configured DistancePerCount property to get the rate of the encoder in feet/second, or inches/second, or whatever else you configured it with.

Honestly, I'm surprised this functionality isn't included already...
