The connector is a sub-miniature, 9-pin D female, with threaded jack nuts. Differential
pairs are LVDS compatible.
Note: The sense of differential signal pairs is a logic “1” when “B” is positive with
respect to “A.”
Single-ended signals are open collector where:
Voh=12V max. and Vol=0.5V max. @ Iol=8 ma.
A pull-up resistor external to the equipment is required. The fault signals, MF and DF,
operate as follows: A fault is indicated by an “OFF” collector (high) and OK status is
indicated by an “ON” collector (low).
