PoKeys Pulse engine v2 documentation
External pulse generator with dedicated IO capability - up to 8 axes at 125
kHz step frequency
Please pay attention to connecting the PoKeysCNCaddon to PoKeys device. PoKeysCNCaddon
connects to PoKeys using the Expansion port flat cable, attached to the board. The Expansion port
signals should be connected to PoKeys as follows:
5 V power supply to the PoKeysCNCaddon - must supply at
least 400 mA for correct operation
PoKeys ground (not to be used for PoKeysCNCaddon IO)
