I've successfully used the Mobiflight Encoder once, but meanwhile forgot how to translate the labels on the Connection Kit to Encoder Connection Names I'm used to (like CLK, DT,...). Could someone please help me out?

So A and B are the left and right turning pulses from the Encoders?
Btn and G are also self explaining

But what is X?

This time I'm not using the MobiFlight Software, but "Axis and Ohs" instead with the AAO Arduino Bridge. There I have to enter Values for "PIN CLK" and "PIN DT" to define an Encoder. How would I do that with the Encoder Connection Kit, as there are no Pins available on the Board for these Encoder Pins?

Hi,
I've haven't used the encoders available in MF Store.
But already converted my KY-040 (marked CLK and DT) to EC11 (A and B or left and right).
It seems that those connections are the same.
Simply use one connection for left the other for right.
If it works reversed simply exchange them.
X may mean the push button function?
Here https://shop.mobiflight.com/product/single-encoder-bundle i see 4 connections: GND, A, B, X

Do you know that you can simplify: if($=1,0,1) ?
Use simply: 1-$
