Single-Channel Brushless DC Servo Controller

3.3.3 Rear Panel Connections

Fig. 3.1 Rear panel connections

USB

- USB port for system communications.

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 obviating the

need for extra PC based IO hardware. Using the APT support software, these user

programmable logic lines can be deployed in applications requiring control of external

devices such a relays, light sources and other auxillairy equipment. - see Section A.4.

for further details.

TRIG IN

– For Future Use.

TRIG OUT

– For Future Use.

- For channel selection when using the MJC001 joystick - see Section 4.10.

MOTOR

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

Section A.2.

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.

HANDSET -

Provides connection for the Thorlabs Joystick, MJC001 - see Section A.5.

INTERCONNECT -

For use in RS232 communications - see Section A.6.

Note

The USB cable length should be no more than 3 metres unless a powered

USB hub is being used.
