Single-Ended Encoder Output Waveforms (Sourcing)
The figure below shows the single-ended encoder output waveforms. When the
waveform is low, the encoder output transistor is OFF.

(1) Refer to your encoder manual for proper cable type and length.
(2) Due to the topology of the module’s input circuits, terminating the shield at the encoder end provides the highest immunity
(3) The resistor (R) value depends on the power supply value (VS). The table below lists the resistor values for typical power
supply values. These resistors must be located at the encoder end of the cable.
(4) The Allen-Bradley 845H sourcing encoder is not compatible with this module.
