:Configure encoder fault settings for a motor.

Encoder faults are set with an action, duration, and trigger.

  The action is one of the following:
    
    MPIActionSTOP,
    MPIActionE_STOP,
    MPIActionE_STOP_ABORT,
    MPIActionABORT,

The duration is in seconds. Keep in mind that the resolution of this setting
  is one servo sample period (1/sample rate).

The trigger sets three switches.
    MPIMotorEncoderFaultMaskBW_DET,     Broken wire switch
    MPIMotorEncoderFaultMaskILL_DET,    Illegal state switch
    MPIMotorEncoderFaultMaskABS_ERR,    Absolute encoder error switch

Broken wires occur when the positive and negative halves of an encoder signal
  pull together. An example would be when A+ and A- are at the same voltage
  because one of the A wires is disconnected.

Illegal state occurs when the A and B channel change level within 40 nsec.

Absolute encoder errors occur when there is a communication error on an
  absolute encoder. The details of this will vary with different types of
  absolute encoders.

Events are configured using MPIMotorEventConfigGet/Set(...).

Warning!  This is a sample program to assist in the integration of an
 MEI motion controller with your application.  It may not contain all
 of the logic and safety features that your application requires.

The msgCHECK(...) macros used in the following sample code are intended
 to convey our strong belief that ALL error return codes should be checked.
 Actual application code should use specific error handling techniques (other
 than msgCHECKs) best suited to your internal error recovery methods.
