Project - Rotary XYZ Navigation



Uses a rotary encoder to navigate horizontal X axis, and/or vertical Y axis, and optionally adjust a Z axis value.

Useful for menu navigation, even with nested multi-level sub-menus.
Or use to select and adjust the individual value of a neo-pixel, or LED, or servo, or whatever.

Imagine the 3 axis colours as being connected to the red, green and blue pins of an RGB LED.
Rotate the encoder to adjust the red value up or down, then press the button to adjust the green value,
then press again to adjust the blue value. Press again to wrap around back to red again.
Long press to optionally exit adjustment mode or do anything else you want it to do.

You decide how many different axis you want to step through before wrapping around again, and you decide how many steps each axis has.

It may be easier to understand if you think of it being used to set the time, which only needs 2 axis.
Use the X axis to select Hours, Minutes, or Seconds, then press to the Y axis to adjust the selection up or down. Press again to return back to X.

Or add as many other axis as required.
Eg: adjust to select a specific neo-pixel, then press to adjust its Red value, press again to adjust Green, and again to adjust Blue, then wrap back.

The script is a modification of the previous Rotary Combination Lock, which uses exactly the same circuit.
So you can use the same optional TM1637 4-digit 7-segment display to show the X, Y,  Z values if you wish:
X is shown (4) on the left, Y (2) is on the right, and Z adjusts digit brightness from 0 (off) to 7 (full on).

Short-pressing the button will step through each axis then wrap back to X. 
You can easily stop any axis from wrapping around if you prefer - ie: to prevent jumping from off to full on.

A long press of 2 secs or more can jump wherever you choose - so in the case of setting the clock time, a long press could exit time setting mode.

The X, Y, and Z values are available in those variable names for you to use if needed, ie: perhaps to select an appropriate menu and sub-menu.
Or you might just want to change volume up or down, or position a servo - it is merely a means of adjustment that you may find handy some day.
