Ports (NSA-010C)

This chapter lists specific ports/pinouts for the NSA-010C.

On the NSA-010C, the Phoenix connectors on the front replace the D-Sub connectors on the rear, as found on other NSA types.

GPI port

The GPI connector provides 16 individual isolated general purpose inputs and a current-limited auxiliary output voltage on a rugged Phoenix connector.

Pin	Signal	Pin	Signal
1 + / -	GPIO +5 VDC / GND	10 + / -	GP-IN9-P(+) / N(-)
2 + / -	GP-IN1-P(+) / N(-)	11 + / -	GP-IN10-P(+) / N(-)
3 + / -	GP-IN2-P(+) / N(-)	12 + / -	GP-IN11-P(+) / N(-)
4 + / -	GP-IN3-P(+) / N(-)	13 + / -	GP-IN12-P(+) / N(-)
5 + / -	GP-IN4-P(+) / N(-)	14 + / -	GP-IN13-P(+) / N(-)
6 + / -	GP-IN5-P(+) / N(-)	15 + / -	GP-IN14-P(+) / N(-)
7 + / -	GP-IN6-P(+) / N(-)	16 + / -	GP-IN15-P(+) / N(-)
8 + / -	GP-IN7-P(+) / N(-)	17 + / -	GP-IN16-P(+) / N(-)
9 + / -	GP-IN8-P(+) / N(-)	18 + / -	GPIO +5 VDC / GND

• The input voltage range of the GPI inputs is +5 to +48 VDC (~5 mA constant current limit).

• The polarity of the inputs is important. The higher potential must be connected to "P(+)".

• The inputs are galvanically isolated.

• The switching thresholds are 2.5 VDC max. for the OFF state and 3.5 VDC min. for the ON state.

• The maximum current of the auxiliary output voltage "GPIO +5V" is limited to 200 mA (constant current limitation).

GPO port

The GPO port provides 16 individual isolated general purpose outputs and a current limited auxiliary output voltage on a rugged Phoenix connector.

Pin	Signal	Pin	Signal
1 + / -	GPIO +5 VDC / GND	10 + / -	GP-OUT9-P(+) / N(-)
2 + / -	GP-OUT1-P(+) / N(-)	11 + / -	GP-OUT10-P(+) / N(-)
3 + / -	GP-OUT2-P(+) / N(-)	12 + / -	GP-OUT11-P(+) / N(-)
4 + / -	GP-OUT3-P(+) / N(-)	13 + / -	GP-OUT12-P(+) / N(-)
5 + / -	GP-OUT4-P(+) / N(-)	14 + / -	GP-OUT13-P(+) / N(-)
6 + / -	GP-OUT5-P(+) / N(-)	15 + / -	GP-OUT14-P(+) / N(-)
7 + / -	GP-OUT6-P(+) / N(-)	16 + / -	GP-OUT15-P(+) / N(-)
8 + / -	GP-OUT7-P(+) / N(-)	17 + / -	GP-OUT16-P(+) / N(-)
9 + / -	GP-OUT8-P(+) / N(-)	18 + / -	GPIO +5 VDC / GND

• The maximum GPO output contact rating is 300 mA, 48 VDC (protected by self-resetting fuse).

• The polarity of the output has no preference.

• The outputs are galvanically isolated.

• The maximum current of the auxiliary output voltage "GPIO +5V" is limited to 200 mA (constant current limitation).

Control In port

The Control Voltage Input port provides 2 individual isolated analog inputs and a current limited auxiliary output voltage on a rugged Phoenix connector.

Pin	Signal
1 + / -	GPIO +5 VDC / GND
2 + / -	CV-IN1-P(+) / N(-)
3 + / -	CV-IN2-P(+) / N(-)

• The analog control voltage input can receive levels up to 5 Vpp max, the switching thresholds can be set in the software.

• The polarity of the inputs is important. The higher potential must be connected to "P(+)".

• The inputs are galvanically isolated, but the "N(-)" for all inputs and outputs are connected together to an isolated GND.

• The maximum current of the auxiliary output voltage "GPIO +5V" is limited to 300 mA (constant current limitation).

Control Out port

The Control Voltage Output port provides 2 individual isolated analog outputs.

Pin	Signal
1 + / -	Not Connected
2 + / -	CV-OUT1-P(+) / N(-)
3 + / -	CV-OUT2-P(+) / N(-)

• The analog control voltage output can provide a voltage of up to 5 Vpp max, which can be configured in the software.

• The polarity of the outputs is important. The higher potential must be connected to "P(+)".

• The outputs are galvanically isolated, but the "N(-)" for all inputs and outputs are connected together to an isolated GND.

DC IN

The DC-IN input allows the device to be supplied with a voltage of 12 to 57 VDC.

Pin	Signal
1	GND
2	Not connected
3	Not connected
4	12 ... 57 VDC

USB Type-C port

The USB-C port (USB 2.0) functions as device mode. The NSA-010C does not support USB audio.
