I am not sure, if I understand correctly, what is the goal You want to achieve and what signals do You want to measure, but I think that You can: 1) use voltage-to-frequency converter chip like this: http://www.national.com/mpf/LM/LM231.html#Overview or use already assembled Mesa's THCAD board Both if them take 0-10V on input and outputs frequency signal 2) use encoder module in HAL to treat the frequency signal and provide an input to PID loop.
