Tab. 15: Connection for the incremental encoder
• If the encoder signal comes from an external source, the switching input can be
connected to the controller in a volt-free manner.
• In this case, the DIP switch S2 must be set to GND_ISO (X5).
• The connection with terminal 7 (24 V) can be omitted.
