Variables
	taskEncoder.S0_INIT = micropython.const(0)
	Defines the State 0 Initiate variable as the constant 0.
	taskEncoder.S1_UPDATE = micropython.const(1)
	Defines the State 1 Update variable as the constant 1.
	taskEncoder.S2_ZERO = micropython.const(2)
	Defines the State 2 Zero variable as the constant 2.

Detailed Description

Runs tasks sent by the taskUser file and keeps the encoder updated.

Acts as a background function file controlling the encoder for the primary user interface so that the user interface does not have to perform tasks directly. It will continuously update the encoder every 10 milliseconds.

Function Documentation

taskEncoderFcn()

def taskEncoder.taskEncoderFcn	(		taskName,
			period,
			zFlag,
			data,
			delta
	)

Performs the tasks as determined by the taskUser file.

Interfaces with the taskUser file through the use of the shared flag parameters, keeping the encoder updated and performing the input commands

Parameters

taskName	The name of the task a string
period	The period of the task in microseconds as an integer
zFlag	Boolean variable shared between taskUser and taskEncoder for the zero command
data	Tuple data shared between taskUser and taskEncoder for data collection
delta	Tuple shared between taskUser and taskEncoder that stores delta data
