It just sounded like you were using either an oscilloscope or on-board voltage sampling. (You said it was "showing" a square wave).

I'm surprised you could actually see the hi/lo voltage transitions with just a multimeter if you were measuring while running your autonomous routine. Are you sure that's what was done? I had suggested turning the encoder very slowly by hand.
