Connection socket or plug?
Devices for the s88 bus (feed back modules, central unit, etc.) have 6-
pin connecting plugs. If there is space available and if the adapter can
be securely mounted, it makes sense to use adapters with sockets.
With some devices it is impossible securely mounting an adapter with
socket. With those devices connecting an adapter with connecting plug
via
a
short
recommended.
Direction "central unit" or "following module"?
The wires of the s88-data line are numbered from 1 to 6 and are
assigned differently. In order to ensure the data transfer, the wires 1 to
6 have to be connected continuously to each other. Normally, the s88
feedback modules are designed so that the flat 6-conductor connecting
cables frequently used so far do not have to be twisted.
For this reason the adapters are available with two different PIN
assignments. The version "R" is used with those s88 devices showing
their connecting plug in direction of the central unit, the version "L" for
those modules and devices showing their connecting plug in direction of
the following module.
