PB-SIO4 Introduction 1. Introduction 1.1 Product Overview 1.1.1 Description The PB-SIO4 is a quad (four) channel asynchronous RS232 serial piggyback with support for full duplex RS232 transmit, receive, and RTS/CTS handshake signals. There are two different versions of the PB-SIO4 available: non-optoisolated and optoisolated. Any version combination can be installed on a single carrier board. Interfacing to the PB-SIO4 depends on the type of connector provided by the carrier board or optional adapters.

PB-SIO4 Introduction 1.4 PB-SIO4 External Interfacing Connection of the PB-SIO4 piggyback to external devices is a function of the specific carrier board for the piggyback. In conjunction with the carrier board there are various possibilities for connecting the I/O channels of the piggyback to external devices. For the carrier boards themselves there are three types of connectors available.

PB-SIO4 Configuration 3.3 Jumper Settings The jumper positions B1 to B6 are located on the front side of the PB-SIO4. They are set at the factory as required and should not be changed. $ Note! Jumpers B1 through B6 are zero-Ohm resisters. Before operating the PB-SIO4 ensure that the jumper settings are set correctly according to the application. No external VCC may be applied to the non-optocoupler version, and, correspondingly, external VCC must be applied to optocoupler versions.

PB-SIO4 Adapter AD-SIO4 4. Adapter AD-SIO4 4.1 Product Overview The AD-SIO4 is a special adapter designed to provide front panel connection to the PBSIO4 using 15-pin Dsub connectors as opposed to the 50-pin connector provided by the carrier board. This adapter consists of a separate, 8 HP front panel with four, 15-pin female Dsub connectors mounted on the front side for external device connection, and two, 24-pin, male dual row connectors for internal connection to the PB-SIO4 carrier board.
