Maestro LCD-12864 RepRapD1scount config

Peter_O

I'm running a Maestro 1.0 with Firmware 2.03 (2019-06-13b2).
A tronxy "LCD-12864 RepRapD1scount" is connected and works with mudcruzr's setup. (Thanks for that!)
Best config seems to be

M918 P1 E-2 F2000000

Display and rotary are working fine so far.

But moving the knob one notch moves the cursor two menu positions. Balancing the rotary between notches makes available the menu position in between.
E-1 should be right, but with E-1 the cursor blurrs and marks two menu positions.

Any idea?

Try E-4

Did. Jumps erratically.

E-4 should be correct.

@Veti, now I've updated to latest FW set of version 2, 2.05 and latest release 1.8 of mudcruzr's menus.
That makes no difference.

@David, Ok. So E-4 be it.
Overall it's usable. Thanks.

Just for information:
It misses a click or steps backward maybe 1 in 5 clicks.
With E-2 it was stepping two positions per click reliably. And hoovering between steps make the position in between acessible.

Mainly I'm using the web interface of course.
But the LCD comes handy for homing or having a look at the temperatures.

Wishing you a relaxed and quiet Holiday season and a happy and peaceful New Year!

that would indicate a problem with the encoder, but a missed step does not seem to be much of a problem.

I agree. Both contacts would have to be bouncing simultaneously for that to happen. The firmware can handle any amount of bounce from one contact, but not both together.

Ok. Maybe I'll swap the encoder for a quality part sometime. Thanks!
