3-10 Installation KPCI-PIO32IOA and KPCI-PDISO8A User’s Manual
Connecting interface accessories
WARNING Make sure power to all external circuits is turned OFF before con-
necting to the KPCI-PIO32IOA or KPCI-PDISO8A board to avoid a
possible shock hazard.
CAUTION Handle the board at the mounting bracket, using a grounded wrist
strap. Do not touch the circuit traces or connector contacts. If you do
not have a grounded wrist strap, periodically discharge static elec-
tricity by placing one hand firmly on a grounded metal portion of the
computer chassis.
Using cable assemblies
The KPCI-PIO32IOA and KPCI-PDISO8A I/O connectors can be mated directly to your
external circuits using locally fabricated cable assemblies. To mate a locally fabricated cable to
an I/O connector, install an IEEE-1284 (1994) connector on the cable. (Mating plug 3M part
number: 10136-6000EC.)
NOTE The 36-pin mating connector is NOT available in a solder-cup version;
use of the specified connector will require appropriate cable and tooling
to make a reliable insulation displacement connection.
Using the STP-36 screw terminal connector accessory
The screw terminals of the STP-36 connector accessory allow you to make easy I/O connections
to the KPCI-PIO32IOA and KPCI-PDISO8A boards with screw terminals. The STP-36 con-
nects to the board I/O connector (J101 and J102) using a CAB-1284CC cable.
As summarized in Table 3-2 , the screw terminal designations (1-36) correspond to the designa-
tions of the J101 and J102 I/O connectors. For example, STP-36 screw terminal 3 corresponds to
pin 3 (IP7) on the board I/O connector J101.
WARNING When using the STP-36, the maximum allowed voltage is 30V RMS,
42.4V peak, or 60V DC. Exceeding this limit could cause an insula-
tion breakdown and a shock hazard.
