5.7 Connecting the incremental encoder
For the VMS4200 and VMS4200/5200 (Multicontroller) system variants, the incremental
encoder is connected in the same manner to the system controller.

• 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.
