XO I/O Interface USB Module – Technical Manual
3.3
Connecting Inputs and Outputs
Depending on the type, the I/O card can be equipped with Dinkle (standard) or Phoenix spring insertion
connectors. For both types you need a 2 mm slotted screwdriver.
Warning!
Although the picture below shows only the connector, it is strongly recommended to connect the
wires with the connectors plugged into the card. Wiring a handheld connector may cause injuries.
Wiring to Dinkle and Phoenix connectors is identical, except that the position of tabs and holes is swapped. The
picture in the procedure below shows a Phoenix connector.
To connect inputs and outputs, proceed as follows:
1.
Push the slotted tab firmly inwards with the screwdriver.
2.
Insert the stripped wire (6–7 mm) into the corresponding round hole as deeply as possible.
3.
Release the tab and pull the wire to check if it is properly fitted.

Configuring the I/O Cards
The XO devices do not automatically detect the connected XO I/O Interface USB modules. You must set up the
modules using the hardware configuration tool first. For details, see Mapping the XO I/O Interface USB Modules
on page 13. After correctly setting up the hardware, you can configure the inputs and outputs in the XO client
software. For details, see the XO Client Software User Manual (21796).
