92 AX3500 Motor Controller User’s Manual Version 1.9b. June 1, 2007
Feedback Potentiometer wiring in Analog Mode
When the controller is configured in Analog mode, the analog inputs 1 and 2 are used for
commands while the analog inputs 3 and 4 are used for feedback. Analog inputs 3 and 4
have different characteristics than inputs 1 and 2, and so require a lower resistance poten-
tiometer in order to guarantee accuracy
Note that the analog inputs 3 and 4 are only available on the AX3500 with PCB revision 3.0
or above. The revision number is marked on the PCB. Roborun will detect the new hard-
ware revision and display Rev B on the screen.
Analog inputs 3 and 4 have different characteristics than inputs 1 and 2, and so require a
lower resistance potentiometer in order to guarantee accuracy.
Important Notice
This wiring is also the one to use when the controller is in Analog mode but switched to
RS232 after reset using the method discussed in “Entering RS232 from R/C or Analog
mode” on page 140
