Please learn the difference between input and output.

Let me ask this. When you drive your car, can you tell how far you've gone by counting the number of times you turned the steering wheel?

Not!

If yes, cons: It will be a total waste of time and effort because nothing will happen.

OK, if you hook the 120V PLC power cord output to the encoder, you'll let the magic blue smoke out of the encoder.

Your post is not understandable. Please spend more time trying to understand how best to translate from your language to English.
