3.4 Optional captive cable connection - RS232 and USB
The PCB has a special connector J1 (an 8 pin, 2mm pitch header connector) which can be
used to attach a captive cable with a matching crimp housing, for RS232 or an alternate
USB connection.
The standard connector fitted to the PCB, in most cases, is a Hirose DF11CZ-8DP-2V male
header plug with shroud. The matching crimp housing is the Hirose DF11-8DS-2C.
CAUTION:
If the J1 connector on your PCB does not include a shroud, to guide the
matching wires into place, you can use a wider range of mating connectors. Do please take
extra care to ensure your connecting cable is oriented correctly to match the pins.
