Incremental Encoder/Counter Pin Assignments for the Model 494.47 Card
Signals are routed to and from the Model 494.47 card through two RJ-50
connectors located on the front of the I/O carrier board. The device type that
you set for the card determines the pin assignments. The following figure
shows the pin assignments for incremental encoders with quadrature outputs.
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.
