[SOLVED] Issue with Rotary Encoder Device in Moode 9

[thestreamdigger]

Could be a bug.

See if the driver is running:

Code:

pgrep rotenc.py

If it's running and there is no response from the encoder then further debugging is required, however I don't have a device on hand that has an encoder wired in so someone else will need to help out.

I used the command pgrep rotenc.py but did not receive any output. When I searched for and executed rotenc.py, I received the following error message:

Code:
