User manual

The return data is the raw value of the analog to digital converter indicating the output

voltage of the monitor. The data range is between 0 and 4095. The following equation can

be used to calculate the real voltage values.

Voltage = (ival / 4095) * 6 (V)

45 short GetSensorPot2 ();

46 short GetSensorPot3 ();

47 short GetSensorPot4 ();

48 short GetSensorPot5 ();

49 short GetSensorPot6 ();

50 short GetSensorPot (short channel);

Description:

GetSensorPotX returns the current value of the relevant potentiometer position sensors.

GetSensorPot (short channel) returns the current value of the specified potentiometer

position sensor.

Syntax: ival = GetSensorPot1 (); // Potentiometer sensor #1

ival = GetSensorPot2 (); // Potentiometer sensor #2

ival = GetSensorPot3 (); // Potentiometer sensor #3

ival = GetSensorPot4 (); // Potentiometer sensor #4

ival = GetSensorPot5 (); // Potentiometer sensor #5

ival = GetSensorPot6 (); // Potentiometer sensor #6

ival = GetSensorPot (channel); /* Potentiometer sensor

#1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 */

Parameter: void // for GetSensorPotX

short channel; /* 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 for Potentiometer #

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 */

Return value: short ival;

Return data interpretation and Remark:

1. The return data is the raw value of the analog to digital converter indicating the output

voltage of the sensor. The data range is between 0 and 4095. The angular position can

be calculated as follows, with the 180˚ position defined at sensor’s physical middle

position. Single sensor or dual sensor can be used for rotation measurement.
