Hall-Effect Inputs

The Hall-effect switch inputs are recommended for AC brushless motor commutation but not absolutely required. The Hall-effect inputs accept 5 VDC level signals. Hall states (0,0,0) or (1,1,1) are invalid and will generate a "Hall Fault" axis fault.

Refer to Brushless Motor Powered Motor and Feedback Phasing for Hall-effect device phasing.
