{|
| '''VINT Port''' || This device must be connected to a [https://www.phidgets.com/?tier=2&catid=64&pcid=57 VINT Hub Phidget] to function.
|-
| '''Encoder''' || An encoder is optional when using the DC Motor Controller object, however, it is required for the Position Controller and Velocity Controller objects.
|-
| '''E-Stop''' || This device features an E-Stop input. The input is shipped with a jumper wire shorting it which disables the E-Stop functionality. When the terminals are opened, it will trigger a [[DC_Motor_API_Guide#Failsafe|Failsafe]] event.
|-
| '''DC Motor''' || Connect a DC motor or a DC linear actuator to these inputs.
|-
| '''Power Supply''' || An external power supply is required for this device (15-60VDC).
