I/O Breakout Options
The Industrial I/O connector is a standard 25-pin D-Sub connector. You may create your own
cable for making your connections. There is an optional VA61 breakout module with terminal
connectors and LED indicators, available from DALSA IPD.
Standard Terminal Breakout (A-IOB-011)
The terminal breakout module (Figure 5) ships as part of the standard product bundle. It provides
a simple means to wire inputs and outputs to the VA61. The pinout is a direct 1–1 correlation with
the 25-pin connector on the back panel (pin-out on page 13).

Optional Isolation Breakout (A-IOB-100)
The isolation breakout module (Figure 6) provides opto-isolation for all of the I/O. It supports
standard “Openline” modules from Grayhill. The breakout provides easy wiring to industrial
controls, while providing protection from potentially harmful power sources. Each module sup-
ports either 2 inputs or 2 outputs. Output modules are fused and provide status LED indicators.
Modules M0 to M3 are DC Inputs, Modules M4 to M7 are DC Outputs (see following table).
