Find Encoder Value in Teleop

An alternative is to call a shared subVI that reads the encoder refnum by name, reads the raw value, and calculates the angle. The subVI would be shared by Periodic, auto, tele, or wherever.

Thanks - Programmers are experimenting and believe this (global variable) is the answer. You're a life saver!!!
