You can't. You need a 24VDC encoder After that look at THIS technote A17586 - "Quick Start " Using the High Speed Counter ( HSC ) for the MicroLogix 1200 and 1500 Post the part number and manufacturer of the encoder you have if you need help changing the part number the 24VDC

Not sure about that company. You may need to call them to figure out the 24 VDC equivalent
