It's a rotary encoder used as an input to a microcontroller to rotate a motor shaft in small increments in a 10-year old German printing machine. There are 32 detents per revolution. The unit includes a momentary pushbutton (when you push on the shaft there is click and tactile feedback). I presume it's a gray-code quadrature output encoder. Optical? Mechanical? Only 5 of the pins are used. (Typically power, ground, channel 1, channel 2, .... ?) Source? Data sheet? Does this look like Klockner-Moeller? Or it may be Japanese -- the LCD display for this equipment is Hitachi. Thanks, Dave

The unit includes a momentary pushbutton >(when you push on the shaft there is click and tactile feedback). We use Bourns optical encoders, like this, for "volume" knobs (double duty for options scrolling). Grayhill also has some nice products, a little cheaper, too. >I presume it's a gray-code quadrature output encoder. Optical? Mechanical? >Only 5 of the pins are used.

See above, or try Digikey's online catalog as a starting place. http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Cat=1966131&k=optical%20encoder >Does this look like Klockner-Moeller?

From: DaveC on 6 May 2010 00:45 Yes, I can find *a* rotary encoder. I need *this* rotary encoder. Any idea the make & model of this one? Is EBE the manufacturer? Thanks, Dave

A single earch on cesi + encoder gave: http://img.diytrade.com/cdimg/176657/1202078/0/1144194283.jpg
