General Purpose I/O Connection, J5 
The 25 pin D-Sub connector located on the top of the controller provides eight optically isolated 
inputs, four optically isolated outputs, and controller watchdog output with both normally 
closed and normally open contacts. The connector also has an extra input which can be used as 
sinking or sourcing input regardless of the other inputs setup.

1 
 to use sourcing outputs connect the +12 to +24V to pin 18 and use pins 19,20,21 & 
22 as your sourcing outputs 
2 
 to use sinking outputs connect the GND to pin 10 and use pins 6,7,8 & 9as your 
sinking outputs. 
Extra input wiring diagram 
All other inputs on the General Purpose I/O Connection can only be either sinking or sourcing. 
As a batch, it is useful to have an extra input which you can decide to use as sinking or sourcing 
independent of the other inputs. 
This input can be read at Y:$70801,4.
