3D Robotics PPM Encoder User Manual
Ppm encoder connect a ppm receiver
PPM encoder module
Translates up to eight PWM (pulse width modulation)
signals into one PPM (pulse position modulation) signal,
allowing you to connect a PWM receiver to a PPM-
compatible autopilot over one wire
Three-wire cable (12 cm)
DF13 three-position to servo cable connects
the encoder to the autopilot
Ten-wire cable (7 cm)
DF13 ten-position to servo cable connects
the PWM receiver to the encoder
Connect the ten-wire cable to
the encoder’s ten-position port.
Connect each wire to your RC receiver. Connect
the red wire to power, the black wire to ground,
and the white wires to channels one through
eight as shown below.
