(*) ROVINS and Ext sensor 1 (resp.2) power lines are isolated from each other. Ext
sensor 1 (resp. 2) pins are linked together. If Ext sensor 1 (resp. 2) is powered from 19 pin
connector this voltage will be present on 26 pin and 12 pin connectors.
(**) Serial GND and Pulse GND are common for a given port (i.e., GND_A for port A,
GND_R for repeater port).
(***) The external trigger lines are isolated. They can be used for example to trigger
acoustic emission of a DVL connected to the ROVINS.
