of this manual.
Note: The rotary encoder switches are limited to a single key
entry and do not allow mouse button, joystick function, or macro
sequence events.
In addition to defining keystrokes, there are three options that can
be set for each rotary encoder switch.
Maximum rate:
This option is used to determine the maximum speed at which
rotary-triggered keystrokes are sent to the computer. This value
can be set by using the dropdown menu to select 10, 20, or 40
keystrokes per second. The default value is 10 per second (see
below). The rate is affected by other system actions, therefore, the
selected rate is a maximum rate and not necessarily an absolute
rate.
Divisor:
This option sets the number of incoming pulses the rotary encoder
switch must provide per outgoing keystroke. Many mechanical
rotary encoder switches provide four pulses between each detent.
Setting this option to 4 will allow for such switches to produce
one keystroke per detent position. Optical rotary encoders will
generally provide one signal for each rotary position of the switch.
In this circumstance, the divisor would be set to 1. The divisor
value is set by using the dropdown menu and selecting the values
1 (default), 2 or 4 provided.
