Re: encoders

John,

The controller only has 6 interrupt ports and easyC handles all 6 of them. You are going to need to loose a sensor or use a VEX co-processor. Why are you using 4 encoders do you have a mechanum(sp?) drive system?

Would it even be possible to use a VEX coprocessor (or any coprocessor for that matter) with EasyC? That sounds far beyond the scope of what EasyC can handle.

Re: encoders

No, it would not be beyond the scope of easyC. You could connect the two serial ports together and and pass data all day long. We even have a feature to select the baudrate for devices that use a slower serial speed.

If you start calling some of the Microchip libraries you can touch and piece of the hardware you can touch in MPLAB.
