Circuit Description
The driver position module (DPM) receives voltage inputs from contacts inside the tilt/telescoping switch. The DPM then supplies battery voltage to the telescope motor forward or reverse circuit depending on which direction of movement is requested. The motor is reversible and the circuits are simply reversed to accomplish movement in opposite directions.
