I spent all of today's time writing and searching for SPIN code that would allow me to take an encoder's signal and output it to the LED lights on the Parallax Microcontroller. In the end, I have 3 programs that seem like they will work for the first stage of encoder-to-microcontroller programming. After class, I helped Larry make our wires for connecting the arm to the microcontroller. I stripped and flexed the CAT5 wires so they were straight. Then Larry soldered the male and female ends to those wires.
