21. CONTROL I/O CONNECTOR FUNCTIONS

The rear panel-mounted Control I/O connector enables the VM amplifier to be controlled or monitored by connected external equipment. Referring to the pin arrangement and functions, prepare the matching D-sub male connector (screw-lock type) for connection to the external equipment. (See p. 9, 10 No. 30 CONTROL I/O connector.)
