7.4.5 Absolute encoder interface
The Nix has an Absolute encoder connector that can be used as position and velocity feedback element. This sensor
generates digital data that represent the encoder actual position. From the position information, speed and
direction of motion is calculated. The position is not lost even if the encoder is powered down, this means it is not
necessary to move to a reference position as with incremental type encoders.
Next table shows the absolute encoder inputs electrical specifications.
