device in ibaPDA and configure the measurement signals.

Establish a FO connection between the TX connector of the device and a free RX
input of an ibaFOB-D card as well as a FO connection between the RX connector
and a free TX output of the ibaFOB-D card. The TX/RX connectors of the ibaFOB-D
card belong together in pairs, i.e. you cannot use just any free TX/RX connectors
