Manifold Connectors
Solenoid Coil Connections using Z-Board
TM
Technology for 2005/2012/2035 valve series
Z-Board
™
plug together technology connects all valve solenoids to the valve coil output driver board,
located in the valve adapter. The 32 available coil outputs are divided into 2 separate connector groups.
Output group No. 1 is comprised of the first output word, bits 0-15, and output group No. 2 is comprised of
the second output word, bits 16-31. Output group No. 1 connects directly to the Z-Boards
™
. Output group
No. 2 is connected to the Z-Boards
™
via an internal ribbon cable or valve side Sub-D module. The first
output (bit 0) connects to the “14” (A) solenoid on the valve closest to the communication node. The 17
th
–
32
nd
solenoids interconnect via the Z-Boards
™
to output group No. 2.
For the maximum capability of 32
solenoids on the same manifold, the 16
th
and 17
th
solenoid coils must NOT be on the same sub-base.
