This project was not without its small hangups. I quickly broke the output pins on the rotary encoder trying to put it into the breadboard. As a result, I ended up soldering wires onto the nubs where the contacts were. This ended up being advantageous in the end as the rotary encorder can now sit away from the tangled mess of the breadboard. I was able to quickly determine, from the data sheet from the rotary encoder and from my previous experience with the push-to-make switch, how to adjust the circuit for the buttonless rotary encoder. The circuitry is above and the video is below. Pushing the button turn on all the lights simultaneously. A clockwise rotation of the encoder slows down the light change rate while a counter-clockwise turn speeds it up. Again, the traffic light pattern is in the UK style.
Next project will probably be the Keypad Security Code or one of the more advanced LED displays depending on when the Mouser shipment arrives. I'm still waiting on a few transistors.
