So the wires go to a talon Encoder Breakout board. You can find the wiring specifications on the andymark encoder description page.

In code, change the control mode of the motor

motor.changeControlMode(CANTalon.TalonControlMode.Position)

To get the sensor feedback you can view it in networktables by adding

motor.get()

and to set the motor to a certain encoder position

motor.set(int encValue)
