Note 1: Digital Common Pins on the SCSI III connector are: 35, 36, and 40.
Note 2: Analog Common Pins on the SCSI III connector are: 24, 27, 29, 32, 59, 64, and 67.
Note 3: References are not provided for DaqBoard/500 Series devices. For this reason POSREF and NEGREF are tied to the Analog Return signals. POSREF connects to ARET1 (Pin 20 on the DaqBoard) and NEGREF connects to ARET0 (Pin 54 on the DaqBoard).

WARNING
Always turn the computer power OFF and unplug it before connecting or discon- necting a screw terminal panel or a cable to the PCI card. Failure to do so could result in electric shock, or equipment damage.
The DaqBoard/500 Series boards bring out +5 V to the main I/O connector [J1]. This power line is fused to protect the boards. Connecting or disconnecting cables or screw terminal panels (as well as any user connections to the power line) may blow a fuse, or worse, cause damage to the board. If you are getting incorrect data readings check that the fuse is not blown.
The power line fuse for the +5V to J1 is designated as F3. It is a “Pico Fuse” with a 1.0A, 125V rating.
Connecting User Wiring
Incorrect connection of user wiring is one of the most common problems experienced by users of data acquisition boards. To ensure proper results, you must first determine what type of signal source you are measuring (Ground Referenced Source or Floating Source), and then choose the appropriate input configuration on your data acquisition board (Differential or
