Dual concentric rotary encoder with pushbutton

[birdyguy]

Hello everyone,

I'm looking for a source for dual concentric encoders with push button and threaded neck. Leo is sold out.

Opencockpits sell them

Thanks for your reply, but it seems they only sell the CTS288's. (single shaft)

You were trying to help. No worries:-) Get those myself..too often it seems :-)

Depending on how badly you want/need them and are willing to pay, I know you can contact the sales department of Elma USA and make an order inquiry. Last I checked, they required a $100USD minimum order but were very friendly and helpful about it, even though it would've been a personal purchase (vs. corp purchase). At that minimum, you'd probably have an extra encoder and knob/cap left over for future use....good motivation for another future project ;) lol.

If you go that route and can't find the email address on their website, PM me and I may still have it somewhere. Good luck!!

Thanks very much for this info. I will contact them and try to place an order. $100 US isn't to steep an order as these items I think sell for around 12 to 15 dollars each and I need quite a few of them.

FYI regarding these encoders and OpenCockpits. These are the same ones I got with my ProSimParts radio panels. Out of the box they were pulsing twice per detent because they are 1/2 cycle encoders.

In order to get them to work correctly I needed to buy the OpenCockpits Encoder cards and reprogram the PIC chip with this code (http://overkillsystems.com/id12.html) so they would only pulse 1 time per detent.

Thanks for info. Sounds complicated. I'm going to avoid that path if at all possible. I would like to get the Elma E37 duel concentric encoders with 16 detents on each shaft. Going to contact Elma and see if they will do a non commercial order.

Hello,

A friend of mine has a pedestal´s modules from Sismo soluciones, and he has the Elma e37 dual conc encoder. They sell it also alone.

Thank you Mapadon. I have book marked the sight.

I found dual concentric encoders on propwashsim (dot) com . $7.00 per encoder and includes the knob and pc board. They are in the USA and have a good rating on tindie. They are supposed to have the dual encoders with pushbutton in a week for $9.50. Less than 1/2 the price of other retailers with knobs!
