and can be used to control eight individual ‘digital’ (off/on) de-
vices, or one eight-bit wide ‘analog’ device. Each group of ten
wires also includes a common power supply and ground wire.
To simplify wiring to any Gilderfluke animation system, the
connectors used on the 1/4 J-6 cables are what are called ‘insu-
lation displacement’ (IDS) connectors. These simply snap on to an
entire cable, automatically ‘displacing’ the wire insulation and
making contact with the wires within. This means that an entire
ten wire cable can be terminated in seconds. All connectors are
polarized, to keep them from being plugged in backwards. Al-
though there are tools made specifically for installing these con-
nectors, the tool we find works best is a small bench vise.
Each J-6 cable is arranged in the following order:
wire number color wire function
1 brown circuit ground
2 red channel 0 data bit 7
3 orange channel 0 data bit 6
4 yellow channel 0 data bit 5
5 green channel 0 data bit 4
6 blue channel 0 data bit 3
7 violet channel 0 data bit 2
8 gray channel 0 data bit 1
9 white channel 0 data bit 0
10 black + VDC unregulated power supply
11 brown circuit ground
12 red channel 1 data bit 7
13 orange channel 1 data bit 6
14 yellow channel 1 data bit 5
15 green channel 1 data bit 4
16 blue channel 1 data bit 3
17 violet channel 1 data bit 2
18 gray channel 1 data bit 1
19 white channel 1 data bit 0
20 black + VDC unregulated power supply
21 brown circuit ground
22 red channel 2 data bit 7
23 orange channel 2 data bit 6
24 yellow channel 2 data bit 5
25 green channel 2 data bit 4
26 blue channel 2 data bit 3
27 violet channel 2 data bit 2
