    Autobrake/flaps panel

    Hi,

    I bought the Autobrake/Flaps panel from opencockpits.
    The description says that I need 3 rotary switches and 2 encoders.

    One rotary switch is for the autobrake setting.

    I suppose that the two other rotary switches are used for N1 REF and SPD REF.

    My question now is how I can use the encoders to make those both settings?
    I can't install the encoder and rotary switch in one position. It's the one or the other.

    Thanks.

    It is explained here:

    Thought to use the encoders seems to be a user option.

    Good luck.
