| Output code | Resolution | Code No. |
|---|---|---|
| Binary | 32 | 1 to 32 |
| 40 | 1 to 40 | |
| 256 | 0 to 255 | |
| BCD | 6 | 0 to 5 |
| 8 | 0 to 7 | |
| 12 | 0 to 11 | |
| Gray | 256 | 0 to 255 |

| 720 | 152 to 871 (gray after 152) | |
| 1024 | 0 to 1,023 |
*3. The maximum electrical response speed is determined by the resolution and maximum response frequency as
follows:
follows:
*4. For the E6C3-AN1E and E6C3-AN2E, the rotation direction input (wire color: pink) can be connected to high (Vcc) to
increase the output code for CW rotation and connected to low (0 V) to decrease the output code for CW rotation.
E6C3-AN1E: High = 1.5 to 5 V, Low = 0 to 0.8 V
E6C3-AN2E: High = 2.2 to 12 V, Low = 0 to 1.2 V
Read the code 10 μs or more after the LSB (20) of the code changes for the E6C3-AN1E or E6C3-AN2E.
*5. The minimum address of the absolute code is output when cut face D on the shaft and the cable connection direction
are as shown in the diagram at the right (output position range: ±15°).
*6. Resolution of 360 or 720: Standard cable length: 2 m
Resolution of 256: Standard cable length: 1 m
increase the output code for CW rotation and connected to low (0 V) to decrease the output code for CW rotation.
