Safety Precautions
Refer to
Warranty and Limitations of Liability.
WARNING
This product is not designed or rated for ensuring
safety of persons either directly or indirectly.
Do not use it for such purposes.
Precautions for Correct Use
Do not use the Encoder under ambient conditions that exceed the
ratings.
●
Adjustment
Reading the Output Code
Read the code after the LSB (output 2
0
) of the code changes for the
E6F-AB3C and E6F-AB3C-C.
●
Wiring
Spurious pulses may be generated when power is turned ON and
OFF. Wait at least 0.1 s after turning ON the power to the Encoder
before using the connected device, and stop using the connected
device at least 0.1 s before turning OFF the power to the Encoder.
Also, turn ON the power to the load only after turning ON the power
to the Encoder.
