[Paparazzi-devel] Re: Encoder Setup Procedure

Hello,
sorry I won't solve this issue, but I do have another question related to the ppm encoder.

I will power the ppm encoder from the tiny, but the rc receiver and servos will be powered independently. I also have a "failsafe multiplexor"-from diydrones, so the pwm signals from the receiver will go not only to the ppm encoder, but also to the failsafe multiplexor. The pwm signals from the autopilot will go also to the failsafe, and finally, the servos will be connected to this failsafe multiplexor(and then I will switch between autopilot or directly rc, in order to keep control if the autopilot shuts down).

My question is, can I only connect signal and ground-(not voltage+) from receiver to ppm encoder, from receiver to failsafe multiplexor and from autopilot to failsafe multiplexor and finally give voltage/power in the failsafe multiplexor outputs  where servos will be connected?Or is it necessary for the ppm encoder to work that the connection receiver-encoder is made with the three cables signal, gnd-, voltage+?
Thanks
