Micro DC Motor with Encoder-SJ01 SKU: FIT0450 - Negative reading only
blaze_3003 2019-04-18 04:42:57 2948 Views1 Replies I am having trouble with the basic read out of the encoder.
When I fire up the motor I only get Negative numbers. Then randomly I will get Positive numbers once every 100th time i spin her up. Most commonly though I will just get a 0 reading for forward direction.
I am using the code 1 example given on the data sheet. Each pin is done correctly and I am using the Nano which is same (kind of not really) as Mega 2560.
6v applied to motor, 5v to the encoder.
What am i missing here?
