Rotary encoders dont work as they should.

Postby illspecko » Fri Oct 10, 2014 10:41 pm

Hi. I got The stm32 v.3 main board.
When i try to save My config, pressing down right Button it just skips to aux7 in the menu. I looked at the boards and notice that The purple cable (red 1) is not on crossed with The blue one one The connector. Is that wrong? Could this be why it skips instead of saving?

Reverse the 3 pin keyboard (not 5 pin encoders) connector on the board.

What happens when you press button LEFT, UP, DOWN and RIGHT? Show the picture how you connected the 3 pin cable to the board.

When i press left nothing happens. Up takes me to aux7r and after that it decrease the value. Down takes me to aux7r and after that scrolls up the menu. Right just takes me to aux7r and the piezo/switch setting.

This is after i reversed the 3pin connector.

You connected it to wrong pins on the keyboard connector of the main board. Pin 1 (ground) of the keyboard connector must remain free. You connect the 3 pins cable to pins 2,3 and 4 of the keyboard connector.
