Re: Rotary encoder
It works either way. I can reverse the 2 connections and it will go the opposite.The direction is also correct?
It is also working just as well using just the inverter chip with no resistors or capacitors.

Re: Rotary encoder
Does it always count double, even at (very) low speed? Are the capacitors (if you used any) and resistors on both A/B lines the same? It is counting double quite consistently. Not using capacitors at all. Does not work at all with them. Output of encoder goes thru a resistor and then thru the inver...

Do the relays need a ground signal or a positive signal to actuate? The PCF8574 can deliver way more current with a ground signal than a positive signal.

Not sure you need the ADS1115 here as I am still a bit confused as to what the ESP is actually doing here. You say you want to send these analog values TO the ESP. I assume they then go out to a dimmer of some sort?
Maybe a picture or a diagram or schematic would be helpful.
