    G320 and Encoder compatability?

    I have an encoder with A+ and A- and also a B+ and B-.

    So I have 4 wires that I need to connect to the 2 encoder terminals on the G320. Should I wire both A+ and A- onto the same A terminals?

    Cheers

    ignore the A- and B- as they are the inverted signals of A and B respectively. Also, verify the current draw on your encoder. I must be 50ma or less to be powered from the Gecko, If it is more, you will need to provide a separate power supply and follow the instructions which can be found on their web site.
