Requirements Encoders must be line driver type, quadrature (dual channel) or pulse
(single channel), single-ended or differential and capable of supplying a
minimum of 10 mA per channel. The Encoder Interface Board accepts 5V or
12V DC square-wave with a minimum high state voltage of 3.5V DC (5V
mode) and 7.0V DC (12V mode). Maximum low state voltage is 1V DC (for
both 5V and 12V modes). Maximum input frequency is 250 kHz.
