Connection modules
Instead of joining the wires of an open-ended cable, attached to your Matrox
GatorEye, to your input and output devices, you can use a connection module.
This ensures a safer, more robust, and reliable connection.
Simple connection modules, like the VIP-3/SC/D25SUB/F VARIOFACE
module and the DFLK-D25 SUB/B VARIOFACE module, route I/O lines
directly to/from specific wire terminals. Other, more feature-rich connection
modules, like the Matrox Breakout Box module, provide additional features.
This appendix provides pinout information for the simple connection modules.
For more information about the Matrox Breakout box module, refer to its
accompanying documentation.
