We have an incremental encoder for tests. We attach it to a battery driven drill and there you go.
A more sophisticated solution is this:

Maybe you can use the PTO function and wire the PTO output to the HSC.

His CPU outputs are Relay. As mentioned by others you can use an incremental encoder connected to a motor, I now have a second S7-1200 set up that I can use to simulate external devices, Pls, Quadrature Pls, 4-20mA, 0-10V.
I don't know how he did it, but Ron Beaufort posted a thing on this forum where he had a piezo speaker hooked up, and it was easy to hear the sound degradation.
It had something to do with compact logix not being the same as controllogix

If the HSC is set up for single phase, something like a simple switch or button should work, yes. Depending on the quality of the device, it may give multiple counts due to the contact bouncing slightly as it makes/breaks. However, this should be enough to monitor the value in the program and watch it count up.
If the HSC is set up for a quadrature signal, you will have to manually step through the waveform yourself, but it should still work in theory.
