TTL stands for Transistor-Transistor Logic and represents a Integrated circuit technology that operates on 5v DC max. limit.
By the lack of sophisticated circuitry in the encoder I would guess it not designed for TTL but depending on the output impedance of the drive in the encoder you can but try, just make sure you limit the test to 5v max and you should not do any harm.
