C-50Trans Transition Connector
(Sd-50/40)
The C-50Trans is a convenient way to attach discrete wires to a Sd-50/xx for the forty digital (on/off)
Show Control Outputs. It attaches right to the back of a Sd-50/40. It also provides convenient connections
for up to eight model airplane-style PWM ServoMotors.
You install a C-50Trans by:
1)
Locating the threaded mounting holes in the case top of the Sd-50/40. Position the C-50Trans on the top of
the case by plugging it into the forty position ‘ J6 ’ connector. It has a polarizing ‘bump’ on one side, so it will
only go in the correct way. Use a pin or other pointy object to poke a hole through the Sd-50/40’s label at
each of the four mounting holes. Remove the C-50Trans from the Sd-50/40. Use an X-acto or other
sharply pointed knife to remove the label where it covers the threaded hole beneath. You only need to ex-
pose the hole. No additional label material around the hole should be removed. Be careful not to damage
the threads as you remove the label.
2)
Install the four 4-40 x "” tall male/female spacers into the four mounting holes in the top of the Sd-50/40.
To make them the required 5/16” tall, install two 1/32” thick washers under each standoff before you screw
it down.
3)
Plug the C-50Trans into the Sd-50/40. It has a polarizing ‘bump’ on one side, so it will only go in the correct
way.
4)
Screw the C-50Trans down using the four 4-40 x "” screws.
5)
The ten position ribbon cable plugs into the ‘ " J6 ’ connector on the end of the Sd-50/40.
You can now terminate discrete wires into the C-50Trans. If you are attaching ServoMotors, just switch the ‘ " J6 ’
Internal/External Power to the ‘External’ power position. Attach your ServoMotors’ Five vdc supply to screw terminals #1
(ground) and #10 (+5 vdc) of the ‘
" J6 ’ screw terminal block. Plug the servos into the headers and configure the appropriate
outputs for ServoMotor PWM control.
