Hello, I need some support, I'm attempting to have a program which checks when the counts (or pulses) on an encoder exceeds a required counts variable. I understand that the volatile qualifier must be used when dealing with interrupts, but I'm concerned that the counts may exceed the 8bit size of a…

I don't know why you're limited to 8-bits or if that's what's really happening. ...With serial communications you usually send/receive one byte at a time and the software has to take care of splitting & reassembling longer types/variables but I assume you're not using serial communication. Look at…
