Connections for the Rear Modules Frames
The input of the 9232 can be terminated on the card depending on the rear module used. It is not
necessary to terminate unused outputs.
The 9232 may be used with the following Rear Modules:
•
RM20-9232-B Standard-Width (Full) Rear Module and RM20-9232-B/S Split Rear
Module — Each card provides eight outputs and one looping output. If the input is
looped on the rear module to another device,
JP1 must be set to LOOP. If looping is
not used, either set JP1 to TERM, or terminate the input externally at BNC 2.
•
RM20-9232-A/S Split Rear Module — Each card provides four outputs. If the input
is looped on the rear module to another device,
JP1 must be set to LOOP. If looping
is not used, either set JP1 to TERM, or terminate the input externally at BNC 2.
