2.10.12 IP Connectors
The figure above shows the position of IPa and IPb on the VM162/177. Each IP is plugged into the board
via a pair of 50-pin IP connectors. The rear one (near to the VMEbus connector) connects the IP bus and
control signals whereas the other one (near to the frontpanel) carries the IP I/O signals.
The IP I/O signals are routed from the 50-pin IP I/O connector to a 50-pin flatcable connector and also
to the 50-pin frontpanel DSUB connector. There is a one-to-one correspondance between the pin (si-
gnal) numbers between the IP I/O connector, flatcable connector and DSUB connector.
