Product Support Asistance. The MCB provides power to the display assembly. Establishes a reference voltage and potentiameter position from the elevation motor. Motor voltage feedback and control-speed-commands determine the level of PWM power delivered to the motor. The signal from the RPM sensor is fed to signal conditioning circuits on the MCB, where the signal is converted to a digital output that is utilized by the Display Assembly to indicate belt speed.

The elevation circuit on the MCB receives elevation direction and enable information from the Display Assembly, using these signals to provide control to the Elevation Motor. Elevation position information, in turn, is fed to the Display Assembly to indicate percent of incline.
