Table lists the pin-out and signal descriptions for the Data In/Out connector on a cable
that connects to the Breakout Board.
Data In/Out Connector – Pin-Out
Note:
(*)
Pins 2 and 3 have the same function: they allow external signals to be
used to cause triggering or recording. Pins 4 and 5 are used to transmit
output signals.
Prototype Rework Area
The Breakout Board contains a prototype rework area for making custom circuits for rapid
development. The area consists of plated-through holes, 20 columns wide by 27 rows
long. The top row of holes is connected to GND and the bottom row is connected to +5V.
The remaining holes are not connected. Use the rework area to insert custom
components and wire-wrap their respective signal, power, and ground pins.
PC Connection
Use the LONGEST (6-foot/2-meter) of the five USB cables provided to connect the host
computer to the Advisor Analyzer box.
