Appendix 1 - CyScan Sensor Connector Pin-outs
The CyScan sensor has four connectors situated at the Stern end of its base plate. Three
of the connectors are used during operation, the fourth is used (offline) when the leveller
component requires a software upgrade.
The pin-outs of the four connectors are given here for completeness.

ports. If 0V and GND are crossed or
joined, the system will not function.
