External Encoder Specifications
Standard voltage levels are TTL (0V to 5V), however, voltage levels
up to 12V are acceptable. If using differential 12V signals, no
modification is required. Single ended 12V signals require a bias
voltage applied to the complimentary input, i.e.; use two 10k resistors,
one connected to +12V and the other connected to the encoder signal
ground to hold the /A phase and /B phase at 6VDC. Do not use a
24VDC encoder.
