Control Switch Leave all switches in off position for normal operation. Power to the Anybus CompactCom module. If this switch is on, the module is pow- ered, whether or not the PC has established a path to the module. On: Reset release for the Anybus CompactCom module, overriding software reset.
Expansion Board Overview The Anybus CompactCom Expansion Board is plugged into the host application connector of the development board and provides in-circuit access to all signals of the Anybus CompactCom host interface, allowing in-circuit debugging and evaluation capacities. Any Anybus Compact- Com , with or without housing, can be connected to this board.

Description 11 (20) 3.3.1 Host Interface Signals The Anybus CompactCom host interface signals are available through six 16-pin headers (2.54 mm). • The upper row of each header is connected to signal ground. • The lower row of each header holds the host interface signals.
Please refer to the Anybus CompactCom M40/M30 Hardware Design Guide for more information. Option Board Overview (Brick) The option board for brick provides in-circuit access to all signals of the Anybus CompactCom host interface, allowing in-circuit debugging and evaluation capacities. The option board operates at 3.3 VDC.
