Incremental Encoder/Counter Pin Assignments for the Model 494.49 Card
The device type that you set in your hardware-mapping software determines
the pin assignments. The following figure shows the pin assignments for
incremental encoders with quadrature outputs.
Note
Signals are routed to and from the Quad Encoder card through two
RJ-50 connectors located on the front of the I/O carrier board.
The front-panel sockets on the I/O carrier board only accept cabling
with 10-pin, shielded, RJ-50 connectors.
The use of other RJ connector types (less than 10 pins or unshielded)
with the I/O carrier board can cause component damage.
Only use cables equipped with 10-pin, braided shielded, RJ-50 connectors
(with gray boot) with the I/O carrier board.
