Figure 30: Connecting TTL to RS-422 Shaft Encoder Inputs
• RS-422 (-) input is biased to a DC voltage from +1 to +2 volts.
• This guarantees that the TTL signal connected to the RS-422 (+) input will be detected as a
logic high or low relative to the (-) input.
• The TTL shaft encoder ground, the bias voltage ground, and the Xtium-CLHS PX8 computer
system ground must be connected together.

Examples on Generating a DC voltage for the RS-422 (-) Input
Figure 31: Generating a DC Bias Voltage
• DC voltage for the RS-422 (-) input can be generated by a resister voltage divider.
• Use a single battery cell if this is more suitable to your system.
