Module ENCODER

SKU:A006

Description

ENCODER is compatible with FACE Kit. You can have it replace the key-card panel inside the FACE kit. It is designed for rotary encoder control, integrated Mega328 microprocessor inside and LEDs around the encoder.

The series communication protocol between M5 core and ENCODER is I2C (The default I2c address is: 0x5E)

This product is EOL now.

I have made the digital command station for model trains (www. zavavov. cz/en/tcs-en/) and now I am working on Wireless controller for it.

Function

Control single RGB

/*
    Parameter:
        led_index: 0 ~ 11
        r, g, b: 0 ~ 254
*/
void Led(int led_index, int r, int g, int b){
    // I2C send data
    Wire.beginTransmission(Faces_Encoder_I2C_ADDR);
    Wire.write(led_index);
    Wire.write(r);
    Wire.write(g);
    Wire.write(b);
    Wire.endTransmission();
}

Read encoder increment

void get_encoder_increment(void){
    int temp_encoder_increment;

    // I2C read data
    Wire.requestFrom(Faces_Encoder_I2C_ADDR, 3);
    if(Wire.available()){
       temp_encoder_increment = Wire.read();// get increment
       button_state = Wire.read();// get button value
    }
    if(temp_encoder_increment > 127){//anti-clockwise
        direction = 1;// flag for encoder direction
        encoder_increment = 256 - temp_encoder_increment;
    }
    else{// clockwise
        direction = 0;
        encoder_increment = temp_encoder_increment;
    }
}
