Description
1 x 12V / 3A output, 4 x 12V / 5A output. Make sure any connected Matrox
device supports the connector's power rating.
Connect a network cable to this connector.
A low profile DB-9 connector which provides GPIO (General Purpose I/O)
that can indicate if a power module has failed, as well as provide a reset
switch to reconfigure the device.
Pin 1 provides fault status of the power modules. It is a latched tally output
(passive) which can accept a 0.75A (maximum) current at a maximum
voltage of 20V.
Pin 9 is to be used to reset the network settings via a simple grounding
operation. Pin 5 is a ground connection. There is a reset pin hole at the top
of the NRG unit which executes the same reset operation as the grounding
of Pin 9.
Pins 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 are not assigned.
