System Connector –Pin Descriptions (Detailed) 

 
           Pin A +28 VDC Main Power In  
 

This is the main power supply to the ISAT-100. The operating range is 22 - 30VDC 
(18 – 30VDC for emergency operation). 

 
 

Pin B - Ground (Power)  

 

This is the power ground connection for the ISAT-100. 

 
 

Pin C - Battery Disconnect  
Connect pin C to pin B or ground to enable the ISAT-100’s internal battery. This 
feature allows the ISAT-100 with the connector removed to be placed in storage for 
several months without completely draining the internal battery, which could 
otherwise result in damage. 

 
 

Pin D - Analog Input #1 
An analog voltage level between 0 and +30 volts, when applied to pin D, will be 
converted to a digital value with 12 bits of resolution. 

 
 

Pin E - Analog Input #2  
An analog voltage level between 0 and +30 volts, when applied to pin E, will be 
converted to a digital value with 12 bits of resolution. 

 
 

Pin F - Analog Input #3 
An analog voltage level between 0 and +30 volts, when applied to pin F, will be 
converted to a digital value with 12 bits of resolution. 

 
 

Pin G - Analog Input #4 
An analog voltage level between 0 and +30 volts, when applied to pin G, will be 
converted to a digital value with 12 bits of resolution. 

 
 

Pin H - Analog Input #5  
An analog voltage level between 0 and +30 volts, when applied to pin H, will be 
converted to a digital value with 12 bits of resolution. 

 

 

 

Pin J - Digital Input #1 – Voltage Seeking - (Mission) 
A positive input between 5V and 28V, when applied to pin J, will produce a digital 
logic high. 

 
 

Pin K - Digital Input #2 - Voltage Seeking  
A positive input between 5V and 28V, when applied to pin K, will produce a digital 
logic high. 
 

 

Pin L - Digital Input #3 - Ground Seeking 

 

A ground input when applied to pin L, will produce a digital logic high.
