It is possible to craete your own knobster using:
- An Arduino Nano
- A dual rotary encoder with push button
- (Optional) some kind of housing
1. Preparing the Arduino Nano
You can flash the Arduino Nano from Air Manager 3.7:
- Go to the create/edit tab
- Push the 'Flash' button in the ribbon bar
- Select the Arduino Nano, and click 'Next'
- Check the COM port of your Arduino Nano
- Check the 'Flash as Knobster' option, and click 'Flash'
2. Connecting the rotary encoder to the Arduino Nano
There are fixed pins that should be connected to the appropriate rotary encoder pins.
| Rotary encoder pin | Arduino pin |
|---|---|
| Inner encoder A | D4 |
| Inner encoder B | D5 |
| Outer encoder A | D3 |
| Outer encoder B | D2 |
| Push button | D6 |
