Quadrature Inputs

By default, the quadrature inputs expect the phase relationship, shown in FIG. 2, for a clockwise rotation
of the encoder to generate a positive level change. If the phase relationship does not match the example,
a clockwise rotation will generate a negative level change. This can be corrected in two ways:

Inputs A and B can be wired in reverse so the phase relationship is obtained at the quadrature
encoder input pins.

Insert a QDIR Send_Command in the NetLinx program.
