BLDC motors normally require Commutation pulses, which normally now originate on the encoder, unless the older Hall type come on installed on the motor.
If you need the commutation signals the CUI102 does not have, you can get the commutation version, but they have to be programmed on the motor, I have experimented with them and found them lacking and non consistent, intermittent motor reversal or stutter etc.
Support on them did not exist at the time, either.
You may be better off looking at traditional optical encoder from US Digital etc.
Edit:
Looking at the motor sheet they appear to have the older hall sensors on the motor.
