*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:

Gray code2560 to 255
36076 to 435 (gray after 76)
720152 to 871 (gray after 152)
10240 to 1023

*3. The maximum electrical response speed is determined by the resolution and maximum response frequency as follows:

E6F-A_Spec1

*This means that the Rotary Encoder will not operate electrically if its speed exceeds the maximum electrical response speed.
