In "Arduino and FSX (Part 6)" and "Arduino and FSX (Part 7)", 32 pins were added to an Arduino using MCP23S17 Port Expanders (aka MCP). These 32 pins could be connected to buttons or switches, and their states (0,1) were transmitted in the "joyReport" data structure through USB to FSX/FSUIPC. As pointed out earlier, FSX has an inherent limit of 32 pins as part of any one joyStick. The Arduino, once programmed with a sketch for accepting switch values, can be converted to a HID-USB device, which can act as a USB 32-pin joyStick to a PC. Thirty-two buttons or switches can then send ON-OFF signals from the Arduino to FSX during simulations.
In Part 7, each port (8 pins) on a port expander had its port interrupt connected to a pin-change-interrupt on the Arduino. As an example, port expander #0 has its Port A INTA interrupt pin wired to the Arduino pin D2, and port expander #0 has its Port B INTB interrupt pin wired to the Arduino pin D3. Any pin that changed state (ON-OFF, OFF-ON) triggered either an INTA or INTB interrupt, which triggered its corresponding Arduino Port interrupt, and the new pin settings were transmitted to FSX.
In this Part 8, the sketch code in Part 7 was adapted to add 16 rotary encoders in place of switches and buttons. I use KY040 rotary encoders with 20-detents, but I suspect other encoders that use the A-On-Off, B-On-Off pattern used by the KY040 should work. The article "Side Project: understanding cheap Rotary encoders" ( 2011-April-14) gives a good explanation how rotary encoders are constructed and function. My January 10, 2017 blog "Arduino and Rotary Encoder (Part 1)" documents the timing of encoder switches as they changed states. See the tables in the sketch code to get an idea of the variability of the switching. That sketch was helpful to me in understanding how the KY040 encoders behaved.
Rotary encoders have two pins (A and B) which toggle, either A-B-A-B or B-A-B-A, for each detent turn. One of the AB sequences is identified as clockwise and the other counter-clockwise, and is determined by the combination of hardware and software.
As an example, with a rotary encoder pin "reAPin" connected to port expander #0, Port A pin #0, a turn of the encoder will trigger the INTA interrupt which will trigger the Arduino pin D2 interrupt. As the rotary encoder turns, it will also toggle its "reBPin" connected to port expander #0, Port B pin #0, which will trigger the INTB interrupt which will trigger the Arduino pin D3 interrupt.
The order of the Arduino pin interrupts must be decoded to determine the direction of turn (clockwise, counter-clockwise) and the appropriate value must be copied into the joyReport data structure to be transmitted to FSX.
While rotary encoders provide a 0 or 1 digital response, as compared to an analog potentiometer, they can be very difficult to tame in software. Many problems arise due to internal "contact bounce" as the A-B wipers move between detents. Encoders can be held in-between detents, in an intermediate state. Encoders can be turned fast or slow, and one or more encoders can be turned at the same (human) time, which may or may not be in any order at computer speed.
Various hardware and software techniques are used for decoding encoders. Capacitors are often suggested to be added across the encoder A-B pins to reduce contact bounce, while some software incorporates delays or timers to reduce faults. Some authors like and some do not like the use of hardware interrupts. The choice of which software to use can be difficult.
In the sketch provided below, code shared by Oleg Mazurov (Rotary encoder interrupt-service-routine for air micros, 2011 Mar 30) was adapted to add 16 rotary encoders (8 to each MCP23S17), 32 pins, to an Arduino Joystick for use with FSX.
The sketch uses hardware interrupts on both the MCP23S17 and the Arduino, with both devices using pin-change-interrupts on the individual pins and port interrupts to signal the next-in-line device that an interrupt has occurred. This configuration allows an interrupt to be tracked back to the pin on an encoder that initiated the interrupt sequence.
Figure 1. Rotary encoder toggles pins A and B which are connected to pin 0 on Port A and Port B, respectively. Pin 0 state changes trigger the INTA and INTB port interrupts, which trigger the Arduino pin-change-interrupts on D2 and D3. If D2 is triggered before D3, the encoder was turned in a clockwise direction. If D3 was triggered before D2, the encoder was turned in a counter-clockwise direction. The direction data bits are set in the joyReport data structure and are transmitted out USB to FSX. Sixteen encoders can be connected in this manner to the two MCP port expanders.
Following is a Serial.print example of what happens in the function "checkForPinChange ()" code when an encoder is turned one detent:
Bank[chip]: 0, flagMCPA: 1, PortGPIOVal: 00000001, mcpFlag 1 Bank[chip]: 0, flagMCPB: 1, PortGPIOVal: 00000001, mcpFlag 2 Bank[chip]: 0, flagMCPA: 1, PortGPIOVal: 00000000, mcpFlag 1 Bank[chip]: 0, flagMCPB: 1, PortGPIOVal: 00000001, mcpFlag 2 Bank[chip]: 0, flagMCPB: 1, PortGPIOVal: 00000000, mcpFlag 2
Which translates to:
- MCP[chip=0] Port A, pin #0 has a value of 1,
so flagMCPA=1 to indicate a valid read of the pin.
- Then, MCP[chip=0] Port B, pin #0 has a value of 1,
so flagMCPB=1 (valid read of the pin).
- Then, MCP[chip=0] Port A, pin #0 has a value of 0,
so flagMCPA=1 (valid read of the pin).
- Then, MCP[chip=0] Port B, pin #0 has a duplicate value of 1,
so flagMCPB=1 (valid read of the pin).
- Then, MCP[chip=0] Port B, pin #0 has a value of 0,
so flagMCPB=1 (valid read of the pin).
The following is a Serial.print example of what happens in the function "processRE ()" code when an encoder is turned seven detents, 3 clockwise count up, 4 counter-clockwise count down:
MCP[0], RE[0] dir: -1, CW, Count 1 MCP[0], RE[0] dir: -1, CW, Count 2 MCP[0], RE[0] dir: -1, CW, Count 3 MCP[0], RE[0] dir: 1, CCW, Count 2 MCP[0], RE[0] dir: 1, CCW, Count 1 MCP[0], RE[0] dir: 1, CCW, Count 0 MCP[0], RE[0] dir: 1, CCW, Count -1
The sketch code has been tested with dual MCP23S17 Port Expanders on an Arduino Uno programmed as an Arduino HID-USB Joystick with FSX. However, the configuration has not been used over a period of time to determine that it works satisfactorily under extensive flight simulations.
/* Sketch - Arduino_ISR_KY040_MCP23S17_8X40Joystick_Oleg Lowell Bahner January, 2017 This code sends joyStick data when axis or button/switches change values. This code uses two MCP23S17 16-pin Port Expanders to add 32 pins to an Uno or Mega2560. 16 KY040 Rotary Encoders are connected to the 32 MCP23S17 pins. Each encoder CLK "A" pin is connected to a successive MCP[0,1] Port[0] A pin [0,1,...7] and the encoder DT "B" pin is connected to the MCB[0,1] Port[1] B pin [8,9,...15]. The function "processRE()" code is adapted from Oleg Mazurov (2011 Mar 30) Ref: www_circuitsathome.com/mcu/rotary-encoder- interrupt-service-routine-for-avr-micros/ This code uses 4 ISR's (one per MCP port) to sense port interrupts on the two MCP's. A one detent turn of an encoder takes either the "A" or "B" pin LOW (ground) which takes the MCP23S17 input pin LOW which triggers the MCP Port interrupt (INTA or INTB, respectively). The MCB interrupt triggers the respective Arduino pin-change-interrupt which calls the Arduino ISR and MCP ISR code. The MCP ISR code reads the port pins and sets flags for further processing to determine the encoder direction of turn and the number of turns. Each port interrupt is processed independently of other interrupts. The MCP23S17 has an interrupt on each digital input pin which can set a PORT interrupt pin. The Port A interrupt (INTA) is chip pin 20, and Port B interrupt (INTB) is chip pin 19. Each INTA and INTB then connects to an Arduino ISR interrupt pin. Bank Port MCP_INT Ard_INT Pin 0 A A D2 0 B B D3 1 A A D4 1 B B D5 Each Arduino interrupt triggers the appropriate "pin-change-interrupt ISR" (interrupt service routine) in the sketch. On an Uno, there are two external interrupts Int0, Int1) but 24 Pin-Change-Interrupts. Pin-Change-Interrupts share an ISR between all the pins on a port (port B, C, and D). Ref: thewanderingengineer.com/2014/08/11/arduino-pin-change-interrupts/ Ref: www_gammon.com.au/forum/?id=11130 The interrupts on the MCP Port Expanders are NOT bridged together using MIRROR or OPEN DRAIN. Both the MCP and Arduino pins must be set as INPUT_PULLUP. UNO/MEGA hardware interrupt pins (D2, D3, D4, D5...) For use as USB-HID joyStick: 1) connect potentiometer wiper pins to analog pins A0, A1, A2 2) In loop(), comment out "sendFlag = 0;" line to use axes 3) connect rotary encoders to MCP23S17 digital pins 4) test with DEBUG to check joyReport data are correct 5) #undef DEBUG so that joyReport data are not corrupted with Serial.print 6) program USB ATmega16U2 as USB-HID ====================================================== Hardware Wiring Example: KY040 Rotary Encoder #0, pin CLK "A" wired to MCP #0, Port A, pin 0, and Rotary Encoder #0, pin DT "B" wired to MCP #0, Port B, pin 0 (device input pin 8). MCP digital pins are set as pin-change-interrupt INPUT_PULLUP which trigger the port interrupt when state changes HIGH-LOW or LOW-HIGH. MCP #0 pin INTA is port interrupt for MCP Port A. MCP #0 pin INTB is port interrupt for MCP Port B. MCP #0 pin INTA wired to Arduino D2 on pin-change-interrupt port PIND. MCP #0 pin INTB wired to Arduino D3 on pin-change-interrupt port PIND. MCP #1 pin INTA wired to Arduino D4 on pin-change-interrupt port PIND. MCP #1 pin INTB wired to Arduino D5 on pin-change-interrupt port PIND.
