2.4.1. Primary Encoder Inputs

The primary encoder inputs are accessible through the Feedback connector. The PrimaryFeedbackType
[A3200: PositionFeedbackType or VelocityFeedbackType] parameter configures the XR3 to accept Square
Wave encoder signals (Section
multiplier option, Sine Wave encoder signals
Refer to Section 2.4.1.4.
Refer to Section 2.9. for the auxiliary encoder input on the Aux Encoder connectors.
