EL5151 | Incremental encoder interface

The EL5151 EtherCAT Terminal is an interface with 24 V inputs for the direct connection of incremental encoders. A 32 bit counter with a quadrature decoder and a 32 bit latch for the zero pulse can be read, set or enabled. Alternatively, the EL5151 can be used as up/down counter terminal with gate.
