connector panel houses all input and output connectors associated with GPI I/O. The
Kaleido-X16 supports 32 GPI inputs and 4 GPI outputs. The GPI connector type is a DB-44
(female on the connector panel; male on the cable):
There are 44 GPI connector pins (40 not including GND) whose functions are as follows:
• 4 Ground (GND) pins
• 32 GPI Input pins
• 4 GPI Output Emitter pins (designated in the table, below, as “N”)
• 4 GPI Output Collector pins (designated in the table, below, as “P”)
The exact pinout for the GPI connector is as follows:
