Direction Indication
Feedback (-DI)
As shown in the figure
, both “DI-A” and “DI-B” signals are “High” when the spool is in neutral
position. When the spool is moving in the A direction, the “DI-A” signal goes “Low” and the “DI-B”
signal stays “High”. The reverse is true when the spool is moved in the B direction.
