Hi

I recently acquired a RAMPS 1.4 board including a RepRapDiscount Smart Controller for Arduino Mega 2560 with a 20x04 LCD screen, and have installed Marlin 1.1.4

I'm having a slight configuration problem with the encoder and the menu. It seems I'm unable to select any menu item beyond the second line.

Below are snippets of the settings I currently have (attached is the entire Configuration.h)

#define MOTHERBOARD BOARD_RAMPS_14_EFB

#define ENCODER_PULSES_PER_STEP 1

//#define ENCODER_STEPS_PER_MENU_ITEM 5

//#define REVERSE_ENCODER_DIRECTION

//#define REVERSE_MENU_DIRECTION

#define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER

#define LCD_LANGUAGE en

#define DISPLAY_CHARSET_HD44780 JAPANESE

//#define ULTRA_LCD   // Character based
//#define DOGLCD      // Full graphics display

Any assistance would be appreciated. Many thanks in advance smiling smiley

This is what I use in Marlin 1.1.4

#define LCD_LANGUAGE en
#define DISPLAY_CHARSET_HD44780 JAPANESE

#define SDSUPPORT

#define SPI_SPEED SPI_HALF_SPEED
#define SD_CHECK_AND_RETRY
#define ENCODER_PULSES_PER_STEP 4
#define ENCODER_STEPS_PER_MENU_ITEM 1
//#define REVERSE_ENCODER_DIRECTION // to change the direction of the Menu enable

#define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER // CL: Stock HICi3 20x4 LCD controller
#define NEWPANEL // enable this if you have a click-encoder panel

@Roberts_Clif many thanks for the reply smiling smiley

I've tried various combination of settings for both the ENCODER_PULSES_PER_STEP and ENCODER_STEPS_PER_MENU_ITEM but unfortunately, I've had no luck sad smiley
Seems the setting of the click encoder

#define ENCODER_PULSES_PER_STEP 1

//#define ENCODER_STEPS_PER_MENU_ITEM 5

is the only one where I have the ability to select menu items.

Do you have menu items that appear to have garbage in the lines at times.
One time ok the next time garbage.

There is no garbage on any lines at all.

I'm wondering if maybe the encoder is either faulty or not correctly soldered.
I think I'll try resoldering the encoder, and/or create a separate Arduino sketch to test its functionality.
