Allright, mystery solved, the value returned is just a ESP32 specific register value (16-bit), according to the documentation this is mostly used for direction and speed decoding.. I will have to adapt it to a position value stored on a 32-bit or even 64-bit variable.. using floating numbers seems overkill.. thank you everyone for the hints! :-) -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
