Specifies how to count and interpret the pulses the encoder generates on signal A and signal B. X1, X2, and X4 are valid for quadrature encoders only. Two Pulse Counting is valid for two-pulse encoders only.

X1 10090
If signal A leads signal B, count the rising edges of signal A. If signal B leads signal A, count the falling edges of signal A.
X2 10091
Count the rising and falling edges of signal A.
X4 10092
Count the rising and falling edges of signal A and signal B.
Two Pulse Counting 10313
Increment the count on rising edges of signal A. Decrement the count on rising edges of signal B.
