Interesting...
Where might I find a description of all 64 positions? (I've got a stack of
Omega Race boards to work on, but no controller. Given the above
information I'd just take a quadrature encoder and a PIC and have the
quadrature inputs step through a hard-coded table of the 64 "positions"...)
Thanks,
