The signals output from this measuring unit are phase A/B/Z signals in the form of
voltage-differential line driver output complying with EIA-422.
Phase A
Phase B
Phase Z
The reference point is the synchronized reference point that is at Hi level when the
phase A and phase B are at the Hi level.
Output signals at maximum response speed (at approx. 42 m/min)

Before using, check that the minimum input phase difference of the control device
connected to this measuring unit or the counter is smaller than 100 ns (Phase A
cycle: 400 ns 2.5 MHz).
* The minimum phase difference can be modified under special specifications.
(See 1. Output signal phase difference)
The travel amount of the measuring unit is detected every 100 ns, and the phase
difference proportional to the amount traveled is output. The phase difference
changes in integer multiples of 100 ns.
Also, the minimum phase difference for the phase A and phase B is 100 ns.

The minimum phase difference is fixed at 100 ns in the standard specifications,
but the minimum phase differences in the table below are available as special
specifications.
