encoder problem

djiceman · January 9, 2008, 2:03pm

Im using midibox 2.4 on mios 1.9f

When i turn my encoder clockwise, it gives off, channel 5 note c3 on, then channel 6 note c3 on, then channel 5 note c3 off, then channel 6 note c3 off.

Whats causing this issue?

I even tried another encoder, same issue.

The output should be:

clockwise turn:

channel * note c3 on

channel * note c3 off

channel * note c3 on

channel * note c3 off

and then for anti clockwise turn:

channel X note c3 on

channel X note c3 off

channel X note c3 on

channel X note c3 off

* and X are just variables. My problem is that which ever way I turn the encoder, it does both channels on and off.

***update, i connected only one pin of the encoder to the din module, now which ever way I turn the encoder, i get values.

I get the same values if I turn the encoder clock or anti clock wise.

Faulty encoders?

Update***

ive just changed to midibx64e (after hours of reading and a few simple changes in the code), I still get the same problem.

I read somewhere about encoder mode DETENT3, but now I cant find it anywhere, I even tried to use it in the code but I got compile errors.

Below is the code that im using now. I still have the problem with the encoder(connect to SR2 on PIN 6 and PIN 7.

There is no encoder mode which would cause an event sent over different MIDI channels while the encoder is moved.

Could it be, that it is connected to wrong pins?

Encoders can only be connected to D0/D1, D2/D3, D4/D5 or D6/D7 of a 74HC165

If you would connect it to (for example) D1 and D2, you would notice exactly this effect.

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Cool, it works, thanks.
