Output signals
Primary and secondary outputs
The IQAN-LC5-X05 has dual outputs for each axis. The redundant outputs allow the
user to set up controller logic that monitors the integrity of the dual joystick signals.
The secondary signal for each axis is a mirror of the primary signal. Use of the
secondary output is optional and determined by the user’s requirements.
Connecting of IQAN-LC5-X05 outputs
When you connect the IQAN-LC5-X05 joystick to a module or standalone controller,
you may use both OUT-[axis]A and OUT-[axis]B signals from the joystick. The
primary signal for the axis is connected to a VIN,
voltage input
and the secondary
signal for the axis, if used, is connected to a separate VIN on the controller module.
Connect each primary axis 10%-90% Vs output signal to VIN, and optionally connect
the corresponding secondary axis 90%-10% Vs output signal to another VIN.

ARNING
The previous example is presented with limited information to explain the use of
primary and secondary signals from the IQAN-LC5-X05. Safety considerations such as
the use of an ’operator present’ switch to enable outputs etc. are always recommended.
