• Timer interface

Description

With the timer F (TIM8) in the encoder mode, the onboard encoder can be used.

Measurement values

The following diagram shows what turn direction of the encoder leads to a increase or decrease of the internal counter.

Usage

The encoder mode will be enabled through the bsp. In the example below, the functions to get the encoder data are explained.

// Get the direction of the ongoing or the last rotation
auto direction = bsp::Encoder.getDirection();

// Get the count
auto count = bsp::Encoder.getCount();

// Set the count to a desired value
bsp::Encoder.setCount(1000);

// Get the encoder button state
auto buttonState = bsp::EncoderButton;
