Re: Encoder wiring
Are you using the Encoders that go on the shafts of the Cimple Gearboxes that came in the kit? If so this is what we did, if Not were using different encoders.


There are 4 wires coming from the encoder. +5v, ground, and signal A and signal B.

These are all wired to the Digital I/O of the digital sidecar. The 2 signal wires will go into separate ports in the digital sidecar.
