Input: Knob - 图1

What Is It

The knob detects the motion of the shaft, like a clockwise / counterclockwise rotation or merely a simple rotation.

How It Works

The knob is an input module that converts the angular position of a shaft into a digital output signal when rotated. Through the digital signal, we can know the knob is rotated clockwise or counterclockwise.
A clockwise rotation ordinarily produces an increased value (e.g. increase in brightness), whereas a counterclockwise rotation produces a decreased value (e.g. decrease in brightness).
The knob can also work as a button switch to detect it is rotated or not.

You can find blocks that control the knob in the tab Events in Codecraft.

Extension Knowledge

Up to 4 knobs can be connected to one mainboard in a time. We can order their numbers according to the switch contacts on the back of them.
Note: The number order should be consistent to that of their contacts.
