Trying to index the Walther's $29.00 turn table

[NYC_George]

After thinking about what Rex said about not being able to align the painted white dots correctly to create an indexing system for the Walthers $29.00 turn table, I come up with this. If you paint the tooth tips of the whole driving gear white and then paint the background black, that is the turn table pit on the gear side. The optical led reader would be able to read each tooth as it passed by. You then run the data into a computer program to get the X value of the tooth. Running this simple Function_Call after you input your selection should stop the table on the right gear tooth, I think. I haven't ran any thing into my complier yet. I'm just guessing right now.

begin
if Direction := Forward then tooth := tooth + 1 else tooth := thooth -1;
if Direction := Forward and tooth := tooth_number then tooth := 1;
if Direction := Reverse and tooth := tooth_number then tooth := 59;
If tooth := Stall_Selection then Decoder_speed := 0;
end
