Re: Encoder Problems after update???

Opening a SubVI like Encoder Open will show you the defaults, not the actual values being fed to it. Don't worry about the "disabled" and "invalid" things you see there.

It's possible that your DevRefs aren't doing what you think they are. If the names aren't exactly the same on the Set and the Get, it won't work. If you try to do a Get inside Robot Main before the Begin vi has done the Set, it won't work. When you get a chance, run Robot Main, open the block diagram where you're trying to read the encoders, and probe the DevRef going into the Encoder Get to see if it looks reasonable.

Oh, and make sure you're doing an Encoder Start immediately after the Encoder Open.
