piHPSDR Encoder configuration

[AB5HM, Hans]

Hi,

i am using a slightly different PCB layout of the V2 controller and i need to change the direction of some of the encoders.

I thought i could do this by swapping the A and B pin assignment in the GPIO Configuration on the startup screen of piHPSDR.

However, modifying that configuration does not have any effect is seems to be ignored and the default configuration is used instead.

Any ideas on how to change the encoder direction?

Best

You can try editing the gpio.props file directly.   See the a  and b line assignments below in my example with 16 and 19. 

 

encoders[1].switch_address=8

encoders[1].switch_pullup=1

encoders[1].switch_enabled=1

encoders[1].top_encoder_address_b=0

encoders[1].top_encoder_address_a=0

encoders[1].top_encoder_pullup=1

encoders[1].top_encoder_enabled=0

encoders[1].bottom_encoder_address_b=19

encoders[1].bottom_encoder_address_a=16

encoders[1].bottom_encoder_pullup=1

encoders[1].bottom_encoder_enabled=1

Hi Mike... that worked... awesome!

Thanks

Long ago there has been a „configuration“ menu in John’s version of piHPSDR, but

if I remember correctly it never actually installed the default values. More

recent versions do not have that menu any longer.

If I remember correctly, one can change the pin assignments by hand-editing

 the props file. Look for

bottom_encoder_address_a

bottom_encoder_address_b
