B. Scanner Motor Control Circuit
The scanner motor (M2) is a 4-phase stepping motor, and is controlled by four pulse signals
(SC_A, SC_B, SC_A*, SC_B*) generated by the DC controller PCB.
The scanner motor is turned on/off and its direction of rotation are controlled by changing
the timing at which these four pulse signals are generated. The speed of rotation, on the other
hand, is controlled by switching the current supplied to the scanner motor.
