Falling Edge

Determines which edge of a input trigger will activate
on

The trigger is considered valid on the rising edge of
the line source signal (after any processing by the
line inverter module)

CounterClockwise

Clockwise

Specifies the phase which defines the encoder
forward direction

Inspection goes forward when the rotary encoder
direction is counter clockwise (phase A is ahead of
phase B)

rotaryEncoderOutputMode

Position

Motion

Specifies the conditions for the Rotary Encoder
interface to generate a valid Encoder output signal.

Triggers are generated at all new position
increments in the selected direction. If the encoder
reverses no trigger events are generated until it has
again passed the position where the reversal
started.

The triggers are generated for all motion increments
in either direction.
