 		 #99427 - Calculating RPM
Responding to: ???'s previous message
This took me a LONG time to figure out. I need to build something similar for tuning the air screws on my carburetor. Unfortunately I haven't done anything with it.

Inverse function:

(true RPM) = (calculated constant)/(captured timer value)

Given your known captured timer value at any given RPM you calculate your constant and hard-code that into your software.

Software converts to displayable value(s) and send to display.
