6.2 Connecting Sensors
You can connect the plyon® flex sensors in two different ways:
1. directly connecting the crimped flex-tail of the sensor to the socket connector
on the PCB. This way tangling cables are avoided and the setup can be kept clean
and simple.
2. using jumper wires to bridge betwenn the PCB crimped flextail to have more
flexibility in positioning the sensors. We added a set of jumper wires to the kit.
Feel free to use any length of male/female jumper wires to fit your purpose.
The following sketch shows the implemented pin layout and labelling.
Proximity: only plyon® flex Square, Stripe or Medium sensor must be connected to
the proximity channel. (reference designs with a 2 pin connector)
Slider: only the plyon® flex Slider will be functional using this channel.
Standard (1-6): all single taxel sensors (plyon® flex Square, Stripe, Medium and Array)
sensor can be connected to the „Standard“ channels. For properly connecting the
Array there is additional information available in chapter 5.1.2.2.
