Tutorial: How to Use E6A2-CWZ3E

The rotary encoder E6A2-CWZ3E is ideal for measuring the rotation of a motor or mechanism. Useful for speed tracking projects and for those exploring sensors.

What you need

• Arduino or compatible
• Power supply cable
• 10kΩ resistor
• Soldering tip

Steps

1. 1. Connect the encoder to pin A0 or A1 of the Arduino.
2. 2. Attach the 10kΩ resistor between GND and VCC of the encoder.
3. 3. Solder the GND, VCC and OUT pins of the encoder to the corresponding pins of the Arduino.
4. 4. Load the provided Arduino code.
5. 5. Check the motor rotation with the serial console.
6. 6. Check the datasheet for further details.
7. 7. Try reversing the GND and VCC connectors to see the effect.
8. 8. Verify proper functioning with multiple turns.

Example code

```void setup() {  Serial.begin(9600);  pinMode(A0, INPUT);  attachInterrupt(digitalPinToInterrupt(A0), count, CHANGE);}int count = 0;void loop() {  if (digitalRead(A0) == HIGH) {    count++;  }  Serial.println(count);}```

Mini project

Create a rotating cart that moves according to the motor’s tilt.

Common mistakes

• Do not solder the pins correctly.
• Connect the encoder to an inappropriate pin.
• Omit the pull-up resistor.
• Forget to check the datasheet.

Recommended accessories

• DC motor
• Transmission
• Mechanical support

Frequently asked questions

How can I verify the correct functioning of the encoder?
Solder a GND and VCC connector to the encoder and verify the motor rotation with the serial console.

Can I use the encoder with a microcontroller other than Arduino?
Yes, the encoder is compatible with various microcontrollers.

What to do if the encoder does not work?
Check the connections and resistance. If problems persist, contact the supplier.
