Important Considerations When Finding the Right Spot for the Encoder

Find a suitable surface to place the encoder. It can be a disc, a rack, or any metallic surface.

  • Ensure the spot is secure for the unit so that a barbell cannot come into contact with it, even if dropped on the ground. 

  • Attach the Velcro strap inside the plates to avoid the need for removal when adding more, reducing the risk of damaging the encoder.
  • To increase the durability of the tether/string, try to find a position where it does not touch the plastic case of the encoder. While the tether/string is very durable, minimizing contact will enhance its longevity.
