Terminals EN and +A1 may be connected together to provide START
and STOP commands. If this is the case, a normal ramp start with a normal
stop (coast) will be selected.
When signaling a STOP command, either terminal may be de-energized. If
teA1 is de-energized, a ramp stop will be selected. If terminal EN is
de-energized, a normal stop (coast) will be selected. To initiate another start,
simply re-energize the controlled (switched) terminal.
During ramp start or ramp stop, the RUN LED will be flashing—long pulse.
