Encoder connections
An encoder may be powered by the 2253P (via VCC and GND pins) or from an external
power supply. In the latter case, the power supply return must be connected to one of the
RJ-45 GND pins.

resistor
Encoder VCC. Use this for encoders that require
external current limiting.

GND
Power return/signal ground
Encoder GND. These can also be connected to
cable shield if used, or external encoder power
supply if used.
