*1. An inrush current of approximately 9 A will flow for approximately 5 μs when the power is turned ON.
*2. The code is as follows:
| Output code | Resolution | Code No. |
| BCD | 360 | 0 to 359 |
| Gray code | 256 | 0 to 255 |
| 360 | 76 to 435 (gray after 76) | |
| 720 | 152 to 871 (gray after 152) | |
| 1024 | 0 to 1023 |
*3. The maximum electrical response speed is determined by the resolution and maximum response frequency as follows:
*This means that the Rotary Encoder will not operate electrically if its speed exceeds the maximum electrical response speed.
