15-pin D-SUB Connector
The 15-pin D-SUB connector connects to general purpose digital I/O. The
general purpose digital I/O available on this connector includes four TTL
I/O lines, two optically isolated input lines, and two RS-422 input lines.
National Instruments provides a generic 15-pin cable assembly kit
(part number 190912-04) that breaks the connector out into 15 color-coded
wires for easy connectivity. Refer to the
section of Appendix A,
, for information about
ordering a cable assembly kit.
If you require twisted pair wiring, you must build a custom cable. Refer to
the connector pin assignments in Figure 3-3 and the
section of Appendix A,
, to build a custom cable for
the 15-pin D-SUB connector.
Figure 3-3.
