    WOW. Finally I understand the rotary encoder logic. Best explanation I have run into in 10 years. Your description turned on the big light bulb on in my brain and I understand it now. The code is so simple too. THANX!!!!!

    Do you know the maximum speed of the decoder? Can it turn up to 200 rounds per minute? I tested once and it was not counting correctly - so the question is - was a problem with Arduino or with the mechanic of the decoder?

      referring your tutorial,so is it possible to synchronize two surface speed of conveying belt/goods ?, since the encoder rotated by a surface speed and give the signal as a control to a motor that can produce similar surface speed to another conveyor for example, thanks for your feedback,regards

    Hi Dejan, thanks for sharing this helpful tutorial,I would like to use a rotary encoder to replace the menu navigation buttons in my project, your video is very useful.
    I notice that you did not appear to implement any software de-bouncing techniques to overcome the switch noise, yet your example did not appear to suffer from switch bounce. Did you use a hardware filter of some sort?
    Thanks.

    • @krallopian
      @krallopian 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah I was wondering about that. My encoder skips when I move it then when it clicks. So each "notch" counts as TWO. 0... 1,2... 3,4.... 5,6.... I suppose I can code accordingly but, slightly annoying.

    • @Xanty55
      @Xanty55 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, my encoder produces the same behavior.

    • @itskevscott
      @itskevscott 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Maybe the two Serial.print() statements in the loop slow it down sufficiently that the chatter has stopped by the time it looks around again. With a faster arduino like an ESP32 the bouncing may be seen again. Havent tested it but just a thought!

    great!! can I ask you abput this topic?
    I have a encoder with 8 Cables and 1500 ppr ( A+ a- B+ b- Z+ z-). I just connect the A and B to the arduino uno with this code. But the reading speed is not enough to catch all the pulse i think.
    Do you think that an arduino Due could help me? Or based on your experience what could be the solution?
    thanks

    Hello Dejan,
    A lot of thx for your lessons and explanation. I gonna to use this sketch for some regulator with rotary encoder. I made a copy of your sketch and everything was OK. Some time later unfortunately in the serial monitor I've got double increment and double decrement for each click of the encoder. My version my encoder went out of order. Could there any problem with arduino? What you about?

    • @joriskingma

      Hey Werdy, I have the same issue, did you solve it? @Dejan: Thanx for the video, very helpfull!

    • @werdy64
      @werdy64 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello Jiris,
      Yes. I've found solution. Like this one. There are two interruptions for Arduino UNO. You can change interruption number dependently the board model. If you need the line "encoder0Pos++" or "encoder0Pos--" could be changed for another one. For example encoder0Pos=encoder0Pos+10 or encoder0Pos=encoder0Pos-10.
      #define encoder0PinA 2
      #define encoder0PinB 3
      volatile unsigned int encoder0Pos;
      boolean A_set;
      boolean B_set;
      void setup() {
      pinMode(encoder0PinA, INPUT);
      pinMode(encoder0PinB, INPUT);
      encoder0Pos=0;
      // encoder pin on interrupt 0 (pin 2)
      attachInterrupt(0, doEncoderA, CHANGE);
      // encoder pin on interrupt 1 (pin 3)
      attachInterrupt(1, doEncoderB, CHANGE);
      }
      void loop(){
      // there should be your code
      }
      // Interrupt on A changing state
      void doEncoderA(){
      // Low to High transition?
      if (digitalRead(encoder0PinA) == HIGH) {
      A_set = true;
      if (!B_set) {
      encoder0Pos++;
      }
      }
      // High-to-low transition?
      if (digitalRead(encoder0PinA) == LOW) {
      A_set = false;
      }
      }
      // Interrupt on B changing state
      void doEncoderB(){
      // Low-to-high transition?
      if (digitalRead(encoder0PinB) == HIGH) {
      B_set = true;
      if (!A_set) {
      encoder0Pos--;
      }
      }
      // High-to-low transition?
      if (digitalRead(encoder0PinB) == LOW) {
      B_set = false;
      }
      }
