3.5.6.2. Differential Auxiliary Encoder Input Option on Feedback B (J2) (YA[4]=2)
The Bassoon can be used as a slave by receiving the position (on Port B) of the master encoder
data in Follower or ECAM mode.
Below are the signals on the Auxiliary Feedback port when set up to run as a differential
auxiliary encoder input:
Pin Signal Function Pin Positions
1 SUPRET Supply return
2 +5 V Encoder + 5 V supply voltage, 5 V @ 200 mA
3 INDEX- Auxiliary index low input
4 INDEX Auxiliary index high input
5 CHB- Auxiliary channel B low input
6 CHB Auxiliary channel B high input
7 CHA- Auxiliary channel A low input
8 CHA Auxiliary channel A high input
