Power and Discrete Control Input Connector
Configure the inputs as
Voltage Input when
triggering over long
distances (greater than
10-20 feet).
Inputs configured as
Voltage Input trigger on
12-24vdc.
A 20-pin Molex type connector provides eight discrete control inputs and the
power input for the unit.
The control inputs can be configured for either voltage input or contact
closure using dipswitch #2 on the side of the chassis. See
Configuration
Dipswitches
section of this manual for details.
By default, the rear control inputs are configured to play files 1-8 to channels
1-8. For instance, input 3 will play file 3 to channel 3 when triggered. With
the default input configuration, files will play and loop for as long as the
input is maintained.
The RideTraXX requires 9-36VDC at approximately 2 Amps.
