hey is that different to just checking the raw count in Hal?
Yes because you can tell which of A or B is not working
what pin am I looking for? and can I monitor it from the Hal configuration window?
hm2_7i76e.0.encoder.00.input-a hm2_7i76e.0.encoder.00.input-b

You should also be able to tell whether A or B is not changing by looking at the encoder A,B pins in hal -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." ????
