I am looking into a design where I would like to use a single=20
incremental encoder for two separate controls.  In order for me to=20
accomplish this I need to understand what the outputs (A & B) are held=20
to when there is no rotation.  Are the outputs held OFF (aka open), ON=20
or one of each based on the last rotation?  What happens when the user=20
rotates the knob very slowly?  Is the pulse a fixed width or is it base=20
on shaft rotational speed?  What is the state of the outputs if the=20
rotation is halted between detents?  Is the nominal output state=20
manufacture dependent or is there a "standard".

   Thanks for any guidance you can provide.
