code example to set 4x encoder decoding mode mode

Technical C/C++

Hello,

Now with the third update the 4x mode encoder decoding should be working, I have been testing our robot encoders and it sems that the default constructor, which by default should select 4x is using 1x mode after comparing the counts with the distance

i am using this code to create the encoders:
m_baseLeftWheelEnc = new Encoder(1, 2, false);
m_baseLeftWheelEnc->Encoder::Start();
m_baseRightWheelEnc = new Encoder(3, 4, true);
m_baseRightWheelEnc->Encoder::Start();

Could you post an example of 4x encoders configuration code

Thanks

Workbench Update 3 now normalizes the returned distance from an Encoder::Get() or Encoder::GetDistance() call. So 1X, 2X, 4X doesn’t effect the magnitude of the result, only the resolution. You can use GetRaw() if you want the unnormalized result for some reason.

Thus I believe your encoders are really configured in 4X mode, but you are reading the normalized results.
