I have tried to use a standard board to read from an encoder before. Good
luck. I had to finally get a quadrature input board, and write my own .dll
file to use. That was before NI made a motion control board.
I used a Kiethly Metrabyte M5312 board, and was able to read and write
on a register level. It kept count (Up and Down), I did the math to derive
depth of Coiled tubing.
Hope this helps,
