PAS sensor compatible with Cycle Analyst V3 2-wire input

I am building a handcycle with the Grin All Axle motors in the rear. I am hoping to use a 2-wire PAS sensor setup so I can use reverse pedal regen. The 12 pole PAS sensor is out of stock, https://ebikes.ca/pas-12p-chr.html. All I can find are 3 pin PAS sensors like this one, which only have one signal line that I think I would wire up to the RPM pin of the V3 cycle analyst. Are there any PAS sensors compatible with the V3 Cycle Analyst? If not, are there resellers of Grin products that might have one in the US?

There are some search results that come back for dual/4-pin pas sensors like:

Never tried one myself. I ordered one of the neat ones that output analog voltage recently:

But it arrives Thursday. Doesn't help you detect reverse, though, AFAIK.
 
Yeah unfortunately my handcycle is only compatible with the separate magnet wheel. I was able to hook up the 3 pin PAS sensor to work when pedaling forward, but I do not have the reverse pedal regen..
 
Pretty sure I've just cut the wheels apart and glued them together before. Sometimes you can mix and match too. Like the split wheel from this listing:

Might work with the 4 pin sensor from this listing:

I do vaguely recall having to watch closely in the CycleAnalyst setup screen for ups and downs, though. So I suppose sometimes the magnets have different directions too.
