Depending on the mode the eQEP is configured the pulses may need to out of phase. The eQEP users guide explains this quite well

I have connected the pulse output to both eQEP A and B connection on the blue thinking this will work, but I am not so sure that this is legitimate. I do see the pulse count up, but sometimes the accumulated pulse value will actually decrease. I suspect this might be a issue since the edge feeding the two inputs are aligned. I am using Strawson Design Roboticscape code and I am displaying the count returned by the rc_get_encoder_pos function. Also the pulse train out of the encoder looks good.
