[oopic] Encoder Communication

I'm new to the OOPic scene, and I'm working on a movement system for a robot.

I'm using a US Digital S4-360 encoder
[http://www.usdigital.com/products/s4/] with 2 channel quadrature TTL
squarewave outputs, and I'm using the oQencode object to monitor the
encoder. All I want to do (now) is learn how this encoder works in relation
to the board. I've read through some sample robot servo and encoder code
[http://www.nubotics.com/support/ww01/code/oopic/ww01_oopic2p_square.osc.php]
and have attempted to modify it to fit my needs, but to no avail.

All I want is for the OOPic to read the encoder. When I twist it a specific
amount (1 to 2 revolutions), I want it to beep, wait a second, then reset
and allow me to twist it again. Can anyone help me achieve this?
