3.10.1. Main and Auxiliary Feedback Combinations
The Main Feedback is always used in motion control devices whereas Auxiliary Feedback is
often, but not always used. The Auxiliary Feedback connector has two ports (B1 and B2). When
used in combination with Main Feedback, the Auxiliary Feedback can be set, by software, as
follows:

Applications
Analog Encoder applications where position data is required, in the Encoder’s
quadrature format, for other purposes such as position controllers and/or
other drives.
Resolver applications where position data is required in the Encoder’s
quadrature format, for other purposes such as position controllers and/or
other drives.
