No, I'ts not necessary to use the motor-rev with this tool changer. The
motor-fwd activates a switching relay that applies 24V to rotate the motor
forward. When motor-fwd is low the relay switches so that -12V is applied
instead, thereby reversing the motor until it locks in place. The -12V is
constantly on between tool changes in order to have a constant locking
torque applied. From that perspective it's quite easy to use.
