hi how do i connect the feedback encoder to the VFD

[@GalcoIndustrial]

Not all VFD's come with an Encoder input, so, does it have an Encoder input. If so, you may need a pin out for the Encoder itself and then reference your manual for proper connections to the VFD Encoder input terminals/connector. Some VFD's/Servo drives will have a dedicated motor feedback connector. In this case you may have to purchase a special cable to connect the feedback to the drive. If your still not sure what to do, then document your drive's make and model numbers and give us a call at 800-337-1720 ask for a product manager and they can assist you further.
