Thats great, Kurt. Thanks. And I'm noodling around, trying to come up with a way to control the gain so it takes less furious spinning to move a foot. But every scheme I come up demands the encoder be restored to zero on the button release before the accumulated count can make the machine move wildly. I'll sort out something... There are a lot of "handles" sticking out of the encoder module. :) What I'd like is a 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 5.0 etc gain sequence, extended another decade both directions. I can display the state of the gain with pyvcp with little problem. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
