FSBUS Router 2

[tuomas]

For other suggestions, I have these strange old ALPS rotary encoders here that are much like the Knitters in that the pulses are separated. But it acts a bit strangely, since it keeps the connections "up" all the time, and when you rotate, it cuts the rotation side connection to zero when you rotate. A bit hard to explain, but I hope a pic helps.

So instead of:

A ____________________________
B -___-___-___-___-___-___-___

It does

A ----------------------------
B _---_---_---_---_---_---_---

So it is a bit strange

The problem is, those are nifty, and also contain an integrated pushbutton and I got those for one euro a piece, but they had just a small batch of those they found somewhere.

Anyway, wiht FSBUS1 I wired those as two different switches, which works. But the chatter-killer algorithm makes life hard - I use those for the gauge knobs like for VOR1 etc, and those tend to be rotated fast.

Now I know I am probably the only person in existence with this kind of weird switches (no way to get Knitters from here with reasonable effort) - but would it be possible to either add the chatter-fix adjustment stuff to plain swithces as well, or alternatively would it be possible to detect this kind of a switch as "knitter"-type and support it too?

It is a bit sucky since I know it is a lot of work for such a small userbase :-/
