There is a label on the encoder cover that reads LHE-509-2000, so I am tempted to assume that model number indicates a PPR of 2000. I am a little unclear about what you mean in regards to 4x the encoder PPR, could you elaborate on that equation a bit?
The PPR "pulses per revolution" usually refers to the number of lines on the encoder wheel. Linuxcnc does not count the pulses, it counts the edges of the pulses of both sensors. So it will count 4 edges for each line of the encoder and wheel that is what the "quadrature" term is referring to. So with a 2000 PPR encoder, Linuxcnc will see 8000 counts per turn.
