The PCI-DIO96 board has a 100-pin, high-density Robinson-Nugent male connector. Connector pinouts are
listed on page 11.
You can use the optional C100FF-x cable to split the 100 I/O lines into two, 50-pin cables. Board connector
pins 1 to 50 are mapped directly to pins 1 to 50 on the C100FF-x cable's first 50-pin connector. Board
connector pins 51 to 100 are mapped directly to pins 1 to 50 on the C100FF-x cable's second 50-pin connector
(pin 51 is mapped to pin 1, and pin 100 is mapped to pin 50.) A sample C100FF-x cable configuration is shown
in Figure 2 on page 12.
Information on signal connections
General information regarding signal connection and configuration is available in the Guide to Signal
Connections. This document is available on our web site at
www.mccdaq.com/signals/signals.pdf .
Caution! When connecting a cable to the board's I/O connector, make sure that the arrow indicating pin 1
on the board connector lines up with the arrow indicating pin 1 on the cable connector. Incorrectly
connected cables can damage the board and the I/O controller.
