Hi all,
I need to acquire signals from an incremental encoder and I have a board NI USB6259 to do this.
It seems that this hardware has special inputs for position acquisition from incremental encoders.
Looking at USB6259 datasheet I could make the data acquisition using inputs Counter/Timer.
If that is right I should send the square waves TTL generated from the encoder to these inputs but my encoder has sinusoidal outputs with a certain phase between two signals.
If I need to send TTL signal to my USB6259 I should convert sinusoidal signals with additional hardware.
Is everything right? Did anyone acquire encoder signals before? Suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Vito
