Connectors
Power connector
BLDC / Stepper motor connector
For BLDC motors use connector P1 (Phase 1, 2 and 3)
For Stepper motors use connector P1 and pin 3 of P5 (Phase 1, 2, 3 and 4)
Switches
Emergency Stop Switch
S2 is a latching emergency stop switch.
If triggered the supply for the power stage is turned off.
Led DS3 indicates the state of the power stage.
