CHAPTER 4: Technical Description 4.6 Connector and Jumper Pinout Each relay has two sides, an A-side and a B-side. Each side is connected to two places: the cable and the jumpers on the top of the board. Tables 4-2 through 4-5 provide the pinouts for the two DB37 cable ends and the onboard jumpers. For easy wiring, the Card’s DB37 connector can be interfaced directly to the terminal block kit (if you ordered IC907C, you’ll need part number EDN37-SP). The kit, consisting of a 6-ft.
