Belt Encoder Interface

For use with conveyor tracking, EJI boards support two independent external belt
encoders through a single, female, 15-pin D-sub connector. The pin assignments
for the Belt Encoder connector are shown in
typical input circuit drawing. Adept strongly recommends using differential
encoder outputs for maximum noise immunity. See the
for more information on setting up and programming a conveyor tracking
application.
Conveyor tracking requires a V
