Re: Small motor used as sensor
I think this Q&A question is more directly related:

Q&A - DC Tach Generators

Quote:
Question:
Are DC Tach Generators allowed as sensors?

If so, can DC motors be used as tach generators solely to provide a signal source to an analog input?

Answer:
DC Tach Generators are allowed as sensors.

DC Motors are not allowed per <R44>.
I would take that to say that any DC motor (non-KOP) can not be used at all, even if for use as a tachometer.
