Incremental encoders: X03 or X04

EP7047 has two connectors for incremental encoders, but only one of these may be used:

  • X03 for incremental encoders that require 5 V supply voltage.
  • X04 for incremental encoders that require 24 V supply voltage.
Note
Only connect one encoder

Connecting two encoders simultaneously can result in damage.

Note
The encoder supply at X04 is not short-circuit proof (24 V)

Risk of damage due to short circuit.

  • Avoid short-circuiting the encoder supply voltage.
