Parallax Position Encoder

I'm using the position encoder from parallax mounted directly to a gear motor shaft. Using the MoMoCtrl.spin object, shouldn't a command of Go_Distance(0,10) mean that the shaft would turn to count ten transitions on the plastic vane? Right now it moves quite a few more than that (more like several full revolutions of the shaft...) so I'm not sure what's going on. Anyone out their with some experience with this part care to impart some wisdom? Or a better software controller; I liked the MoMoCtrl due to its simplicity but am willing to try any others
