Re: Sky9x Rotaty Encoder Option
Just fitted my encoder. Found the left and down arrows didn't work :o I found you need to bridge the lower contacts on each of the 4 directional switches. Maybe not necessary to bridge all four perhaps, but I did anyway. They are not bridged on the adaptor pcb. This applies to the ersky board, anyw...
