This product is available with one GPIO connector. The galvanic isolated GPIO connector has the following pinout:
This product is available with five connectors: GPIO, RS-XXX1, RS-XXX2, RS-XXX3, and RS-XXX4 that can be ordered in either a
galvanic isolated or non-galvanic isolated version.
This product is available with four full function galvanic isolated serial ports.
RS-XXX1/RS-XXX2 are set as RS-232 during manufacturing. For setting details of RS-XXX1/RS-XXX2 serial ports in other modes,
please refer to the TEK5-APL HARDWARE MANUAL. RS-XXX3/RS-XXX4 serial ports can be used as a standard RS-232 only. The
ports have the following pinout:

The unit is by default preloaded with software that can download and install a selection of Linux OS images over hardwired network. Simply connect a display to the
unit though the DP or DVI-D or VGA connector and a network through the Ethernet LAN RJ45 connector and power it up, then follow the steps on the screen to load
the software. Local proxies will interfere with this process. For more information, go to our Knowledge Base at: https://www.technexion.com/support/knowledge-base/
