Encoder Outputs

In some applications you may wish to read the encoder signals being generated by the mo-
tor, may be to feed to another drive set in following mode.  The DB-25 I/O connector includes 
encoder output signals for this purpose. The outputs are “Differential Line Driven” signals that 
provides buffering from the source encoder signals.
