MOTOR DRIVE
-
Provides all phase current drive connections to the DC motor
actuators - see Section A.1.
FEEDBACK
-
Provides connection for the position encoder feedback signals - see
USER I/O
- The ‘USER I/O’ connector exposes a number of electrical signals useful
for external control and monitoring - see Section A.3. for more details.

TRIG OUT
– For Future Use.
AUX I/O
- The AUX I/O connector exposes a number of internal electrical signals. For
convenience, a number of logic inputs and outputs are included, thereby negating the
need for extra PC based IO hardware. Using the APT support software, these user
programmable logic lines can be deployed in applications requireing control of
external devices such a relays, light sources and other auxillairy equipment. - see
Section A.4. for further details.
