The following table details the functionality of the pins. To connect a third-party external 

detector, present an analog differential signal to pins 10 and 11. 

 
Pin 

number 

Function 

Notes 

Accessory Bus Reset 

System reset, normally 5 V but 0 V pulse on 

spectrometer power up. Output. 

0 VL 

0 V return for digital circuitry. 

Accessory Bus Clock 

30 7200 Hz TTL compatible signal for Accessory 

Bus microcontroller clock drive. Do not pull 

more than ±2 mA from this pin. Output. 

Accessory Bus Abort 

Accessory abort to prematurely finish Accessory 

Bus command. Output. 

Accessory Bus serial transmit 

(from spectrometer to 

external) 

TTL compatible serial signal running at 4800, n, 

8, 1. Output. 

Accessory Bus serial receive 

(from external to 

spectrometer) 

TTL compatible serial signal running at 4800, n, 

8, 1. Input. 

0 VL 

0 V return for digital circuitry. 

5 VL 

5 V supply for digital circuitry. Do not pull more 

than 1 A from this pin. Output. 

0 VA 

0 V analog return for analog circuitry. 

10 

 

External differential positive analog detector 

signal. ±11 V full scale. Input. See Note 1. 

11 

EXTDET− 

External differential negative analog detector 

signal. ±11 V full scale. Input. See Note 1. 

12 

0 VA 

0 V analog return for analog circuitry. 

13 

+12 VA 

+12 V analog for any analog circuitry. Do not 

pull more than 100 mA from this pin. 

14 

−12 VA 

−12 V analog for any analog circuitry. Do not 

sink more than 100 mA into this pin. 

15 

TRIG_IN (NOT 

IMPLEMENTED, LEAVE 

DISCONNECTED) 

Trigger in. Not implemented at the present 

time. Input. 

 

NOTE:  

The differential input signal has a maximum positive value when  is at +11 V and EXTDET− is at −11 V. It 

has a maximum negative value when  is at −11V and EXTDET− is at +11 V. The input impedance is 100 

KΩ on each input with reference to 0 VA.
