Multiple axis operation

: In this mode, the each output line is assigned to individual axis

means Output 1 is for X axis, Output 2 for Y axis etc. A pulse is issued whenever an axis
passes a set position. The following diagram will explain in detail its operation:

The Following table shows the pin connection for Auxiliary operation.
