Option 02
This option adds six BNC connectors and a 50-pin con
nector to the rear panel to allow external access to the inter
face for external I/O control. These connectors are not
prewired. Instead, prepared jumpers, strip pins, coaxial ca

This gives the system designer as much flexibility as possi

section of this manual for Option 02 installation information.
