8013 with Relay Driver Board
8013 with DC Relay Driver Board
Connector Board
The Ethernet connector, J2, is a standard RJ-45 connector
for a standard Ethernet cable. Use an ICS Wiring Kit to extend
the Ethernet connection to the rear panel of the host chassis or
mount the 8013 so that its Ethernet connector is accessible from
the rear panel of the host chassis. ICS's Wiring Kits provide a
short 1 or 2 foot long Cat 5 cable and a shielded bulkhead con-
nector for extending the 8013's Ethernet connector to the rear
panel of the host chassis
Power connector J3 is a small two pin connector located near
the front of the board next to the PWR LED. Power can be ap-
plied to the 8013 by connecting the DC power source to J3 or to
pins on the Digital Interface connector, J1.
Available Relay Driver Boards
Two Relay Driver Boards are available for the 8013. Both
boards sit on top of the 8013 board and include an internal 5 V
power supply that powers the 8013 from the relay power supply.
The relay drivers on both boards are disabled at power turn-on
time and are only enabled when the output signals have been
configured and are stable.
The 4813 Relay Driver Board has 128 sink-type relay drivers
that switch up to 48 volts and sink up to 500 mA of current. Four
36-pin headers have 32 relay drivers outputs (4 bytes) on each
header. One byte or 8-bits on each header can be converted to
a standard 8013 I/O signals and used as inputs or outputs. Each

header has an unused signal line that a user can jumper to any
8013 handshake line. 36-conductor flat-ribbon cables and mating
solder-pin connectors are available for connecting to the user's
relay board.
The new DC-37 Relay Driver Board has 64 sink-type relay driv-
ers that can switch up to 48 volts and sink up to 500 mA of current
and 64 direct 8013 I/O lines. The DC-37 Relay Driver Board has
four DC-37 male connectors with 16 relay driver outputs and 16 I/O
lines on each connector. Each DC connector has an unused signal
line that a user can jumper to any 8013 handshake line.
See the separate data sheets for more information about either
Relay Driver board.
