High Speed Counter – 2080-MOT-HSC Appendix 4
Quadrature Counter (X1)
The module is compatible with 2 and 3 signal quadrature, or incremental
encoders. The A and B signals are offset by 90 degrees and encode the direction of
the rotation. The third signal, Z, occurs once per revolution and is often used as a
home reference. The module’s use of this signal is discussed below in the Z input
section.
