3.10.3 Auxiliary Feedback - Differential Encoder Input Option
(YA[4]=2)
The Whistle can be used as a slave by receiving the position data (on Port B1) of the master
encoder in Follower or ECAM mode. In this mode Port B2 provides differential buffered
Auxiliary outputs of B1 for the next slave axis in Follower or ECAM mode.
Below are the signals on the Auxiliary Feedback ports when the Whistle Auxiliary Feedback
port is set up to run as a differential Auxiliary input:
