3 SIGNAL CONNECTIONS

There are two connectors on the CIO-DAS16/M1/16. The 37-pin connector which extends through the mounting plate
and extends out the rear of the PC is primarily for analog signals, and is referred to as the analog connector. The
40-pin header connector at the rear of the board carries the 24 digital I/O and is referred to as the digital connector.

3.1 ANALOG CONNECTOR DIAGRAM

The analog connector is a 37-pin, D-type connector, accessible from the rear of the PC through the expansion
backplate (Figure 3-1). With the exception of the missing D/A signals, the signals available are identical to the
CIO-DAS16.
The connector accepts female 37-pin, D-type connectors, such as those on the C73FF-2, a 2-foot cable with
connectors. If frequent changes to signal connections or signal conditioning is required, please refer to the information
on the CIO-TERMINAL or CIO-MINI37 screw terminal boards.
