suzo happ mechanical rotary pinout
« on: July 21, 2017, 08:32:01 pm »
Does anyone have the pinout for the suzo happ mechanical rotary joystick?  I'm trying to connect it to my gp wiz 40, but can't find any documentation on the pinout for the mechanical version.  I think the brown wire in the #1 position on the harness is the ground, and that the control pins then go from 1-12, but I'd rather not guess.

Thx!

You got it.

Purple wire is pin 13. (ground)

Brown wire is pin 1, the rest are in counterclockwise order. (red=2, orange=3, yellow=4, green=5 . . .)   ;D

I use euro-style terminals to consolidate the three 4-wire groups so there's only one wire leading to each of the rotary encoder inputs.

That's perfect, thanks!  Haven't seen those euro-style terminals before. Was planning on just using wire nuts to connect the 4 wire groups to the appropriate control wire.  Have to check those out and see if they'd work with really thin wire.  I'm running the connections to cat5 as I'm going with a modular control panel. 

Thanks again!
