Re: Kit opto encoder resolution?

Last year they were 250, 1x. this year they are either 350 or 360, I can't remember which. I would set it to 350 1x. We honestly don't need more than around 12 counts in 4x decoding, or more for 2x or 1x decoding, since the mechanical error is great enough (especially with a little chain slack) that we could be off by as many as 100 counts using the KOP encoder, depending on gearing.
