User I/O Connector

5 4 3 2 1

The User I/O connector is a HD–15 connector located directly above the base interface connector on the rear of the thruster. The connector is shown in Figure 3–8. This connector provides access to signals for

interfacing to custom automation equipment. The pin numbers for the connector are shown in Figure A–2. The pin assignments and signal descriptions are given in Table A-II.

Input signals, such as Vacuum On Sense, can be configured as sourcing or sinking using 24 VDC and Input Common. For example, to activate the Vacuum On Sense input, connect Input Common to ground and provide 24VDC on the input pin.

Outputs, such as Ready Status, are provided through relays rated at 1A@24VDC. Outputs provide contact closure to Output Common when active.
