Printer encoder sensor for steering wheel

to make steering wheel i bought printer encoder sensor canon g2000 sensor number: qm7-4574
but which pin is vcc
which pin is gnd
which pin is rx
i don't know which pin tx is
can you help
There are 5 pinouts, which one cannot be used



Looks like just power to one or two leds and two sensors.

I think the sensors for A and B quadrature are on the ends of pic 3. ends of the bottom LHS set of pads on Pic 3, or pins 3 & 5 (numbered from the top) on the 5 RHS pads. I don't understand the middle pads.

Something a bit like

It is likely that your sensor is the one in the figure below:

Exactly! and based on the number of pins, the grounds are common.
