Sounds like a digital logic problem.

Hi Darren.
        I use the Hagstrom KE72. The problem is as follows: I'll use the
EWS in Falcon 4, specifically, the EWS-Program increase which is Shift-w.
With a normal rotary switch I can program that the EWS-progam increases
every time I "click" in a clockwise direction. The problem is that I also
want to be able to EWS-program decrease(shift-q) when I turn the knob
counterclockwise but that won't work because a normal rotary can't be
programmed to two commands/click.
