Zerosquare Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 (edited) Desolder the black wire. Connect the wires and diodes like this (the number in the circle is the pin number on the 15-pin connector. Also, make sure the diodes are in the orientation shown): Connect the switch on your encoder to pins 4 and 6 of the 15-pin connector. Note: pin 4 is connected to 3 different places, so you will need some extra wire to connect them together. EDIT: all of the green dots below are connected together. You can use them to connect everything that goes to pin 4. Edited September 5, 2022 by Zerosquare 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gedalya Posted September 9, 2022 Author Share Posted September 9, 2022 @Zerosquare, is this the proper orientation for the diodes? The photo is of the diodes taken from the packaging. I have not worked with this before so not sure; also how long should I keep the legs on these? I'm inclined to think shorter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gedalya Posted September 10, 2022 Author Share Posted September 10, 2022 @Zerosquare I made the changes with the instructions you provided and the controller works beautifully. Thank you very much! Now I need more rotary controller games:) Attached is a photo of the final results. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the ingeeknito end labels for my carts and they come with some extra stickers which I cut and put on the controller. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
