Incremental Encoder ABZ Input
An encoder is a device that converts angular or linear displacement into electrical signals.
Namely, it converts displacement into periodic electrical signals and then converts electrical signals
into count pluses. So, the displacements can be measured by the number of pluses.
This topic takes OMRON E6B2-CWZ1X as an example to describe how to use.
As the different color cables of the encoder, connect the 5V power line to Pin49, the 0V power
line to Pin41, and then connect each coded wiring in turn.
The cable color description is shown as follow.
