Encoder input signal
Phases A, B and Z are available to this product for encoder input. The signals that can be connected are
those in the following output forms: the line driver output form, the TTL level output form, and the
open-collector output form.
The specifications for the input pulse that can be set are as follows:
- 2-phase Input, Multiply by 1
- 2-phase Input, Multiply by 2
- 2-phase Input, Multiply by 4
- Single-phase Input, Multiply by 1
2-phase Input
Two-phase input is a pulse input consisting of two phases between which there is a phase difference of
90° : Phase A (leading signal) and Phase B (trailing signal). The minimum phase difference between
Phase A and Phase B should be set to 0.2μ sec for line driver output connection, to 0.34μ sec for TTL
level output connection or to 1μ sec for open-collector output connection.

Single-phase input
In single-phase input, the counter counts up at the rising edge of Phase A (UP) pulse and counts down at
the rising edge of Phase B (DOWN) pulse.
A count cannot be performed properly, if Phase A (UP) pulse and Phase B (DOWN) pulse are generated
at the same time.
