A position indicator for step switches and tap selectors of transformers and the like has a contact array connected to the motor drive and connected by a plug to the plug of a connector which, in turn, is connected by plugs to the information-generating module which outputs to the display. One of the pairs of plugs between the contact array and the connector or between the connector and the module can be reversed relative to the other to signal a different sense of rotation of the motor drive.

The circuit of the present invention is able to detect and identify the position of several contactors.Each contactor (1) is mounted in series with a resistor (2). The first contacts (A.sub.N) are interconnected. The same applies for the second contacts (B.sub.N) and the third points (C.sub.N) of the branches established. In addition, the third points (C.sub.N) are separated by a second resistor (6). The measuring of the voltage between the first and third points (A, C) makes it possible to detect and identify the open and closed contactors and in addition is able to detect a malfunction.Application for detecting the position of the doors of a thrust reverser of a turbojet engine.

A method and system to detect a position of a member movable along a defined path is described. The system includes a magnetic source, an array of sensors, and an analyzer. The magnetic source radiates a magnetic field and is coupled to a movable member. The array of sensors is fixed relative to the movable member. Each sensor generates an output response value based on an angle of the magnetic field passing through each sensor. The array of sensors produces a plurality of output response values for a first position of the movable member. The analyzer receives the plurality of output response values and calculates a composite output response value to determine the first position of the movable member.
