22  linux,axis:
23    default: 0
24    description:
25      the input subsystem axis to map to this rotary encoder.
26      Defaults to 0 (ABS_X / REL_X)
27
28  rotary-encoder,steps:
29    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32
30    default: 24
31    description:
32      Number of steps in a full turnaround of the
33      encoder. Only relevant for absolute axis. Defaults to 24 which is a
34      typical value for such devices.
35
36  rotary-encoder,relative-axis:
37    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/flag
38    description:
39      register a relative axis rather than an
40      absolute one. Relative axis will only generate +1/-1 events on the input
41      device, hence no steps need to be passed.
42
43  rotary-encoder,rollover:
44    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/int32
45    description:
46      Automatic rollover when the rotary value becomes
47      greater than the specified steps or smaller than 0. For absolute axis only.
48
49  rotary-encoder,steps-per-period:
50    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32
51    default: 1
52    enum: [1, 2, 4]
53    description: |
54      Number of steps (stable states) per period.
55      The values have the following meaning:
56      1: Full-period mode (default)
57      2: Half-period mode
58      4: Quarter-period mode

64    description: the method used to encode steps.
65    enum: [gray, binary]
66
67  rotary-encoder,half-period:
68    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/flag
69    deprecated: true
70    description:
71      Makes the driver work on half-period mode.
72      This property is deprecated. Instead, a 'steps-per-period ' value should
73      be used, such as "rotary-encoder,steps-per-period = <2>".
