Stein Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Hi all, this is my first post but i have followed the forums for about a year now. I have build the sammichSID, which is a clever little box. But i have some encoder problems. When i turn the encoder too fast it jumps up and down in values. At lover speeds (very slow) it works fine, but it makes using the machine a pain. I have tried all the things people have written about in this forum, but without luck. Do anybody know what could be the problem. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phunk Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 likely a broken encoder... unlikely a encoder with contact to the heatsink underneath (when pressing a little harder)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stein Posted January 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 I am also thinking that. Do anyone know which encoders that is compatible? I have no clue even about how they work :-P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Email me so I can arrange a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stein Posted November 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 I got the new encoders and it worked fine! BUT today i dropped the unit on the floor :no: and it landet face down. Now the encoder behaves badly again, so i have to replace it. What type of encoder would i need? Perhaps a more sturdy one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 I can't recommend a better encoder than the Bourns ones I use... which are Mouser part 652-PEC16-4220FN0024 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stein Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Thabk you very much! Is this the right part? It looks wrong in the picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 The picture is wrong. The part number is copypasted from my BOM spreadsheet. It might be cheaper for me to just send you another one, unless you are ordering from Mouser for other parts you need. Just email me if you want (another) replacement :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stein Posted December 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 I have tried to reach you on e-mail. Perhaps you got lost in the crazy christmas spirit ;-). I would love to order some encoders from you if your offer is still on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
