Description

I am trying to read my 600 pulse encoder with "Adafruit_BBIO.Encoder" but it seems that the number of 1 revolution pulses I am getting is incorrect. Please help me
Instead of getting 600 pulses / 1 revolution, I get 2400 pulses / 1 revolution

Research direction

Start with the Adafruit_BBIO.Encoder entry point and reproduce the reported result using the 600-pulse encoder. Compare the observed count with the encoder specification and determine what behavior should be changed; done means one revolution reports the expected 600 pulses.
