:::warning GPIO access is fundamentally dangerous because invalid options can physically damage or destroy your hardware. Ensure that you fully understand the schematic for your particular device before trying this as we do not offer a warranty. Use at your own risk. :::

:::note This module requires attaching a peripheral accessory to your device. It will not work without one. :::

Overview

Meshtastic supports hardwired rotary encoders as input devices. Currently, one rotary encoder (rotary1) is defined, but later more rotary encoders can be added (if needed) the same way.

:::tip Once module settings are changed, a reset is required for them to take effect. :::
