Pulse Input
2-phase Input
Two-phase pulse input consists of a phase A pulse (advanced signal) and a phase B (delayed signal)
pulse that have 90° of phase difference.
If the phase Z (reference position signal) is used, a Z pulse will reset count value of the two-phase
pulse input to zero.
* Count operation for incremental counting in the CW direction.
* When decremental counting in the CW direction is set, the PC Card performs decremental counting
at the rising edge of the phase-A signal.
* The minimum phase difference between phases-A and B is 400 nsec.
Counting is not performed normally if the phase difference is less than 400 nsec.
