Functional Details

External power connectors

The USB-1096HFS has two external power connectors labeled

POWER IN

and

POWER OUT

on the enclosure.

The

POWER IN

connector is labeled

J3

on the board, and the

POWER OUT

connector is labeled

J4

on the

board.

Connect the

POWER IN

connector to the supplied +9 V external power supply (CB-PWR-9V3A). The

POWER

OUT

connector lets you power additional daisy chained MCC USB Series products from a single external

power supply. When running at full load, the USB-1096HFS draws 2.6 A from the supply. When using the
USB-1096HFS under full load conditions, do not daisy chain power to another MCC USB Series product.
Depending on your load requirements, daisy chained products may require a separate power supply. Refer to
"

Power limitations using multiple USB-1096HFS devices

" on page 3-6 for more information.

USB LED

The

USB

LED indicates the communication status of the USB-1096HFS. It uses up to 5 mA of current and

cannot be disabled.

explains the function of the

USB

LED.

Initial communication is established between the USB-1096HFS and the computer, or data is
being transferred.

PWR LED

The

PWR

LED illuminates when external power is supplied. The USB-1096HFS incorporates an on-board

voltage supervisory circuit that monitors the external power supply. The

PWR

LED does not light under the

following circumstances:

!

when the input power falls below +6.0 V

!

when the input power goes above +12.5 V

!

when you connect the external power supply to the

POWER OUT

connector

Pull-up / pull-down resistors

Each digital port group has three associated 10 kΩ pull-up/pull-down SIP resistor locations. Each SIP resistor is
shipped from the factory configured for pull-up. To configure individual ports for pull-down, de-solder the SIP
resistor pin connections and install the resistor with the common line at the

LO

end. Then re-solder the SIP

resistor pin connections.

Screw terminal wiring

The USB-1096HFS has four rows of screw terminals labeled

Port 1

through

Port 4

. Each row has 26

connections. The screw terminals provide the following connections:

!

96 digital I/O terminals (

A0

to

C7

for Port 1 through Port 4)

!

Four (4) ground terminals (

GND

)

!

Three (3) VDD power terminals (

5V

)

!

One (1) external event counter terminal (

CTR

)

Use 14 AWG to 30 AWG wire for your signal connections. Each screw terminal is identified with a label on the
board and on the underside of the enclosure lid. Refer to

for the signal name associated with each

board label.
