SC-206X Series boards or to the 5B Series backplane. An 8-channel SSR
Series backplane with a 26-conductor ribbon cable is also available for
connection to the SC-2050. For instructions on making these connections
to the proper signal conditioning accessories, refer to

Connectors
The SC-2050 has two 50-pin ribbon cable connectors that are connected
pin-by-pin to each other. You can use either of these connectors to attach
the SC-2050 to the DAQ device via a cable. You can daisy-chain the
second connector to other 50-pin accessories.
The SC-2050 also has three 26-pin ribbon cable connectors that you can use
to connect to the signal conditioning accessories. The analog ports have pin
connections that are compatible with the 5B Series of analog signal
conditioning modules. The digital ports are compatible with the SC-206X
Series digital signal conditioners as well as with the 8-channel SSR Series
solid-state relay board.
Figure 2-2 illustrates the connections between the SC-2050 and the
