Two channels of balanced analog audio are available through this connector. The balanced audio can be
connected to male XLR connectors as follows (standard pin 2 +ve connection):
The GPI's are active low with internal pull up resistors (4.7k Ohms) to +5V. To make an input active, lower
the signal to near ground potential (i.e. connect to shell or signal COMGND ground). This can be done
with a switch, relay, TTL drive, GPO output or other similar method.
The GPO's are active low with internal pull up (10k Ohm) resistors. When active, the output will go low and
is able to sink up to 10mA. When in-active, the signal will go high (+5V). Do not draw more than 100µA
from the output.
The COM port signals are standard RS-232 with hardware flow control. The directions of the signals are
indicated in the above table.
