36 Pots + 53 buttons + 1 Encoder

[jackchaos]

I'm finishing off the last bit of electronics for my panel and I've decided to use 1 encoder as a menu data wheel.

My encoder is from SMASHTV's site and I'm confused on the wiring for the 3 pins.

Below is an image of the encoder:

Encoder wiring diagrams suggest 2 of the pins connect to a DIN module and 1 of them to VS.

Does it matter which one goes to VS?

Hi,

Encoder wiring diagrams suggest 2 of the pins connect to a DIN module and 1 of them to VS.

Does it matter which one goes to VS?

sure this matters!

Encoder pins are normally named: A, B, C (common)

If I have Smash encoders right in mind the middle pin should be C (wired to Vss). A and B are the switches.

ALPS Encoder have a different connecting.

Someone can verify this please?

Gotcha

C is the middle one:

Thanks doc
