problems with velocity readout from encoderget vi

[Brdn666]

If you still can't get it, you can use the counter. The period output works for speed. One rev (Count of the counter) is one rev. of the encoder. Multiply that by the circumference of the wheel or whatever and you got the speed. You also get rev. here. You can multiply that by the circumference to get distance too.. that would save space. You must have a Digsrc if the encoder is analog!! You get some example code for it.
