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 RS-232 or RS-422 signal types.

Jumper E110 enables or disables the use of the PHASE, SERVO and INIT lines

* Note: Required for communications to an RS-422 host port

** Note: Required for communications to an RS-422 or RS-232 host port

*** Note: Output on card @0; input on other cards. These pins are for synchronizing multiple PMACs

together by sharing their phasing and servo clocks. The PMAC designated as card 0 (@0) by its jumpers

E40-E43 outputs its clock signals. Other PMACs designated as cards 1-15 (@1-@F) by their jumpers

E40-E43 take these signals as inputs. If synchronization is desired, these lines should be connected even

if serial communications is not used.
