Re: MAME control - difference between dial & paddle

A paddle reports absolute position within a defined range. It has stops at each end of the range. It could use a potentiometer or some kind of position encoder, but that’s an implementation detail.

A dial reports relative position. It has no stops. It uses an incremental encoder.
