| Rotary Encoder - QEI Module - PIC18F2331/PIC18F2431 |

Here is a small example of putting the QEI module on the 18F series of
parts that contain this hardware to some use. Incremental Rotary
encoders are very common these days. They are used in many consumer
items such as radio's, Microwave oven's etc. The 18f series of parts that
contain the qei module provides the developer with a flexible hardware
solution so as to decode the rotation of the encoder.
The code uses my own LCD routines. Use the CCS routines instead to
display the rotation of the encoder on your own LCD display.
I have commented the code fairly well so it should be a easy read 
Thanks Scott

// Mechanical Rotary Encoder connected to pins qei-a & qei-b Port A
