I/O CONNECTORS

4.0 GENERAL

All I/O signals are available on the rear panel connectors. Time code input is available on the rear panel
BNC connector. The locations of all connectors are shown in Figure 4-1.

4.1 J2 EVENT INPUT/1PPS OUTPUT BNC CONNECTOR

J2 is a BNC connector that is normally used as a 1PPS output. It may also be changed via internal
jumper JP4 to an event input. In both cases the signals use standard CMOS/TTL levels. See section
2.1.6 for setting JP4.

4.2 J3 RS-485 SERIAL DIFFERENTIAL INPUT/OUTPUT

A serial RS-485 differential input/output is available on the rear panel phone jack connector J3. The
pinouts for J3 are listed in Tables 4-1 and 4-2. Figure 4-2 shows the orientation of the J3 pins. These
connectors are used for linking bc632D's in a network configuration using Datum's Digital Time
protocol. Standard telephone wire can be used to connect Slave bc632D's to a Master. The bc632D
can also be used as a Digital Time master.
