Property reference
|
Properties |
|
Count Variable |
|
Variable Type |
| Selects the size of the encoder count variable depending on the number of encoder counts required to be stored. The 16 bit variable counter is accessed via the ReadCounter and WriteCounter functions. The 32 bit variable counter is accessed via the ReadCounter32 and WriteCounter32 functions. | |
|
|
Encoder Resolution |
|
|
Post Scaler |
| Encoders with a mechanical click will often have 4 transitions per click. 1:1 would provide the maximum output resolution. 1:4 would provide the encoder click count. | |
|
|
Connections |
|
A |
| Input pin A | |
|
|
B |
| Input Pin B | |
|
|
Simulation |
|
|
Repeat Rate |
| Simulated repeat rate when clicking and rotating the encoder | |
|
Rotation Increment |
| Number of degrees to rotate when performing a single quadrature pin transition. | |
