How to get encoder feedback from NI PCI 7344

Hi,
I was wondering how I can get the encoder feedback from the motion controller PCI 7344 using a LabVIEW VI. It is being used to contorl two linear actuators.  
I am not very familiar with LabVIEW and VIs and I would appreciate any help. If any more information is needed please let me know!Thanks

Functions palette >> Vision and Motion >> NI-Motion >> Analog & Digital I/O >> Read Encoder Position.flx

The encoder must be wired to the Enc A, Enc B and Enc /I inputs of the MOTION interface. Furthermore, the encoder must be enabled and configured properly. The easiest way is to make these settings with MAX (Measurement and Automation Explorer).

Please post back if this should not solve your problem.
