General

The front panel offers 4x BNC connectors. 3x BNC connectors (1,2,3) are for use with the supplied HFCTs for

data acquisition. The fourth connector (~) is the Auxiliary input, where the phase reference transformer is

connected. Only the supplied phase reference transformer specifically designed for the CDC should be used

on this input. Each channel can be identified from the top enclosure label.

CDC Top View

The rear of the CDC contains the following connectors:

SD card slot:

Currently unsupported/functional.
Do not insert an SD card into this slot.

Three status LEDs

Further information on the LEDs in section 2.3.

Mini USB Connector

Used for instrument power and communication. The CDC is supplied with a
split USB Cable allowing more power to be drawn from additional USB source
if required.

Ethernet Socket

Currently unsupported/functional.
Do not insert network cables into this socket.
