Encoder Inputs
You can use the breakout cable for communication between the vision system and a single or quadrature encoder.
Note: The encoder inputs are compliant to IEC 61131-2 Type 1, 2, 3. The current input limit is 2.5 mA. The voltage range is between 10 - 30 V. The maximum input frequency is 500 kHz, and depends on the length of the cable. The 500 kHz is valid with up to 15 m long Cognex cables.

The following diagram shows the encoder input wiring. For single encoders, use the ENCODER A pin. For quadrature encoders, you can use either ENCODER pin. For more information, see Breakout Cable.
