    Question QEI Hardware Quadrature Encoder Inputs PIC 18F4431

    I am trying to get my head around this Data Sheet, and I don't get it.
    The DS refers to A POSCNT / MAXCNT registers. Am I correct that the counts of the QE are stored in those registers MAXCNTL , MAXCNTH . . . just the same as they would be in a software variable and then I can change or clear their value with software commands ?
    And if not, where is the advantage of the QEI hardware?
    Thank You

    If you do not believe in MAGIC, Consider how currency has value simply by printing it, and is then traded for real assets.
