I need to know the max speed that a touch sensor can advance the counter. I
would like to control a stepper motor with the rcx and use a touch sensor input
to count the steps.

I am not going to actually use the touch sensor itself, just the sensor port
set to recieve touch sensor signals (a switch). I do not need to know the speed
of the actual touch sensor.

Any help you can give me with this would be greatly appreaciated.

                                                Thanks

(...) Which counter are you referring to? If believe that if you are using the standard Lego firmware, e.g. by using NQC, and you are using the "pulse/edge" counting modes, you can detect an edge only once every 300 ms or so, which is fairly slow.
