Touch Wheel - But clockwise

Post by alistair.monaghan »

Hi there, the data from my Phidget touch wheel defaults to anti-clockwise actions - is there a way to make it clockwise?

Thanks in advance

You can make it clockwise by applying some simple math to the touch value:

Code: Select all

clockwiseValue = (touchValue *  -1) + 1

Anywhere in your code where you are getting the touch value from the capacitive touch wheel. Just apply the equation to the reading before you use it, and then use the result in place of the raw touch value.
