Rotary Trinkey - encoder?

Post by haninja »

So I got the Rotary Trinkey plus the Encoder, soldered it and loaded it with CircuitPython 7.

Next, I'm trying to run it as described here https://github.com/todbot/qtpy-knob
I am using Mu over serial and I can see the code running (It prints the welcome message) but I don't see any activity coming from the decoder.

Is it possible I received a defective decoder?

Did you try the example in the Rotary Trinkey guide? https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-rotary-trinkey

Which example? Are you talking about the Arduino examples?

No, CircuitPython. Starting here: https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-rot ... ixel-blink.

The rotary trinky was inspired by the todbot project, but the exact pin connections may not be the same.
