Re: Quadrature Encoder Wiring to Digital Sidecar
I've connected two encoders and I can't seem to get either one to work, using my own code and the example code. I wired them up as suggested, +5/blue on one, gnd/yellow on the second pwm cable for each encoder. The dashboard shows one gpio of the four lit green, the other three are dark. I've tested the wiring with a multimeter and cables look ok. Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this problem? Thanks in advance.
