SeaI/O User Manual 
SeaI/O-462 Optional Items 
Depending upon your application, you are likely to find one or more of the following 
items useful for interfacing the SeaI/O-462 to real-world signals. All items can be 
purchased from our website (http://www.sealevel.com
) or by calling 864-843-4343. 
For high-current, high-voltage applications: 
  DB-78 to Dual IDC 50 Pin Ribbon Cable (Item Number CA237) 
−  60” cable connects each SeaI/O-462’s DB-78 connectors to solid-state 
relay racks equipped with 50-pin header interface. 
  Solid-State Relay Racks: 
•  Quad six position relay rack (Part Number PB24HQ) 
−  Relay rack can accept up to six QSSRs for a total of 24 channels. 
Features a 50-pin header connector for easy interface via 50-
conductor ribbon cables. 
•  Quad four position relay rack (Part Number PB16HQ) 
−  Relay rack can accept up to four QSSRs for a total of 16 channels. 
Features a 50-pin header connector for easy interface via 50-
conductor ribbon cables. 
  Quad Solid-State Relay Modules: 
•  AC Input (Part Number IA5Q) – Provides 4 channels of discrete I/O 
interface to monitor AC inputs up to 140V @ 10mA. 
•  DC Input (Part Number IB5Q) – Provides 4 channels of discrete I/O 
interface to monitor DC inputs from 3.3V to 32V. 
•  AC Output (Part Number OA5Q) – Provides 4 channels of discrete I/O 
interface to control AC outputs up to 140V @ 3A.   
•  DC Output (Part Number OB5Q) – Provides 4 channels of discrete I/O 
interface to control DC outputs up to 60V @ 3A.  
  Simulation/debug module (Part Number TA01) 
−  Module simulates the operation and load characteristics of a standard 24-
channel relay rack. An LED corresponding to each port bit illuminates to 
indicate state. Eight position DIP-switches are used to generate input status 
changes.
