On my EFIS panels I have a 7 position knob. I have used three wires to be able to repesent 8 positions (1 is never used). I essence I have created a BCD encoder. The EPL code basically reads the bits set on the knob and then sets an nqw. here is the problem, as I rotate the knob from left to right (or right to left) it effectively scrolls through all the values. for example, lets say in at position 3 and need to go to position 1 then i must click through position 2 to get to position 1. what this means is that the epic captures 2 events the click from 3 to 2 and then the click from 2 to 1. now, if this knob is the range selector on the nav display then I get this horrible flashing as it moves from the origin position to the destination throught all the intermeddiate positions. any ideas

set a timer to say timeout in 100ms or whatever would be slow enough to click from position to position at a normal rate without timing out. The timer would be reset for each click. When the timer times out send the nqw for the current position. Is this EPICUSB or EPICISA?Ralph

You can do that, instill a timer function in your EPIC code, or replace the switch you have with a 'Break-Before-Make' rotary switch. It sounds as if you have a Make-Before-Break switch, which the EPIC doesn't really handle all that well.
