Strange Rotary Encoder Problem

[DSoldano]

I've got my UHF Radio working except for a strange problem with my rotary encoders. They are the standard 4 step per detent that DCS BIOS expects and normally corrects for. However, they jump by 4 values per detent. If I change the preset channel by 1 detent it actually jumps by 4 (from 1 to 5 for example). If I rotate the encoder slowly, I can watch it single step between detents, ending up 4 values higher (or lower depending on rotation direction) at the detent stop. Everything else works just fine.

Anyone have any ideas?

I'm just using the standard code snippets from the DCS BIOS Reference.

DcsBios::RotaryEncoder uhfPresetSel("UHF_PRESET_SEL", "DEC", "INC", 15, 14);

Figured it out. Encoder.h had the default set to 1 step per detention rather than 4. Must have been set that way when I downloaded the Arduino library because I never changed it.
