Last updated
REV Robotics HD Hex Motors (REV-41-1291) and the Core Hex Motors (REV-41-1300) come with a magnetic quadrature encoder already installed and an appropriate cable for connecting the encoder output to the REV Robotics Control Hub (REV-31-1595) or Expansion Hub (REV-31-1153). See Table 1 and Table 2 for relevant encoder details.
Core Hex Motor (REV-41-1300) Reduction | 72:1 |
Free Speed (RPM) | 125 |
Cycles per Rotation of the Encoder Shaft | 4 (1 Rise of Channel A) |
Counts per Rotation of the Output Shaft | 288 (72 Rises of Channel A) |
The Core Hex Motor uses a 2-pin JST-VH Connector for motor power and a 4-pin JST-PH for sensor feedback from the built-in encoder. For more information on using the cables and connectors included with the Core Hex Motor, see the REV Control System - Cable and Connectors documentation. The image below has the pinout for the motor power and the encoder.
HD Hex Motor Reduction | Bare Motor | 40:1 | 20:1 |
Free Speed (RPM) | 6000 | 150 | 300 |
Cycles per Rotation of the Encoder Shaft | 28 (7 Rises of Channel A) | 28 (7 Rises of Channel A) | 28 (7 Rises of Channel A) |
Counts per Rotation of the Output Shaft | 28 (7 Rises of Channel A) | 1120 (280 Rises of Channel A) | 560 (140 Rises of Channel A) |
