Codewheel Generator Description

The Codewheel Generator is a versatile, simple program that lets a user design a codewheel for just about any type of homebrew optical encoder project, then easily print the wheel image on a home inkjet or laser printer. With a good codewheel in hand, and having cobbled some way to mount said codewheel to a shaft, building and mounting suitable photodetector arrangement(s) will let the experimenter replace very expensive commercial optical encoders in home-built equipment. For projects where encoders were previously cost prohibitive, the homebrew encoder option expands a hobbyists design horizons. Main features: Very easy to use Generates seven different types of codewheels of 1 to 8 tracks each Hassle-free printing: the program automatically prints the codewheel at the specified size, with no print driver magic required by the user. Physical size and resolution are limited, for the most part, by the printer's capabilities. Prints both positive and negative images. Negative images facilitate photo-reproduction of your wheel images. The program automatically accommodates printers having unequal vertical and horizontal resolutions. For project documentation purposes, the program can also save the generated codewheel images as 1-bit-per-pixel .BMP files. The absolute position wheels may be generated with the code increasing in either the clockwise or counterclockwise direction.
