Rotary Encoder Knob
On the side of controller there is an infinite turn - rotary knob. This digital encoder knob simulates your
focuser’s knob. In every small step turn, motor will respond clockwise or anticlockwise.
Rotary encoder has two presets. The fast step (50 steps in every click of your turn). and 1/10 reduction.
(5 steps in every click of your turn)
Switching these two pre-sets is easy by pressing down the knob on the side of the device.
You can also disable the encoder functionality by keep pressing the knob for two seconds. Led will turn
to orange and the encoder will not obey at your commands. Press the knob one more time and you will
enable the encoder functionality again.
Emergency Stop: When you press the knob, controller will halt every motor operation. This is
useful when you need to stop the motor instantly.
