Encoder Wire Colors
Could someone confirm this for me with the US Digital E4P-250-250-N-S-D-D-B encoder from AndyMark in regards to the color of the four wires for the cable that comes with the encoder.
Here's my guess: Orange = 5v Brown = 0v Blue & Yellow = Signal (Not sure which is A or B but it can be corrected in programming regardless) Thank you! Sorry if this is already on CD somewhere; I tried searching for this but I couldn't find the thread I was looking for. |

Re: Encoder Wire Colors
That sounds right, but I believe it says on the encoder which pin on the connector is what.

Re: Encoder Wire Colors
Yes, orange is +5 (connected to red on the DIO cable) and brown is "ground" (connected to black on the cable). We always have yellow as A (going to white on the DIO cable) and blue as B (going to white on a second cable). But you're right, deciding which is A and which is B is arbitrary.

Re: Encoder Wire Colors
You are correct, and I believe yellow is A.
Also, don't be too rough with the connection to the encoder, they don't take much to break. |

Re: Encoder Wire Colors
When in doubt, always read the datasheet... found here:
