The JRS422 connector provides the PMAC with the ability to communicate both in RS422 and RS232. In addition,
this connector is used to daisy chain interconnect multiple PMACs for synchronized operation.
Jumper E110 selects between RS232 or RS422 signal types.
Jumper E110 enables or disables the use of the Phase, Servo and Init lines.
* Note: Required for communications to an RS422 host port.
** Note: Required for communications to an RS422 or RS232 host port.
*** Note: Output on card with E40-E43 all ON. Input on card with any of E40-E43 OFF. These pins permit full
synchronization of multiple PMACs through sharing of phase and servo clocks. If synchronization is desired, these
lines should be connected even if serial communications is not used.
