I have a interesting problem with the phidget encoders and fs2pidgets. The problem happens when I am using the pm737MCP.ini offsets. In fs2phidgets there is the phi value column and the FS value column. When your turn the encoder slowly the phi value is +1 or -1 depending on direction. If you go a bit quicker the phi value goes from 1 to 2 then 3 and so on, turn the other way and it goes -1 -2 -3 etc. The problem I have is when the phi value goes from + 1 to +2 the FS value reverses. So in the case of the alt setting +1 counts it down and -1 counts up, but when the phi value hits +2 because the encoder is being turned quicker the alt starts counting up instead of down. Now the interesting thing is it doesnt happen when you go the other way, -1 -2 -3 in this case the FS value doesnt change.
I hope I have explained it here as its hard to describe.
Anyone else noticed this?
thanks
