import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs'; import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem';

:::note This plugin 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 plugin settings are changed, a reset is required for them to take effect. :::
