The SIGNAL I/O connector is the 25-pin D-SUB connector on the rear panel.
By inputting a signal to the SIGNAL I/O connector, a test can be started/stopped
and the panel memory and program memory can be recalled. In addition, the status
of the tester can be checked using the output signal from the SIGNAL I/O connec-
tor.

• For 25-pin D-SUB connectors and cables, use a shielded type with a length of 3 m
or less to prevent malfunction due to noise.
• The internal control circuit of the tester is designed to prevent malfunction caused
by noise generated by the tester or peripheral devices. However, connected
devices may malfunction if unshielded cables are connected to SIGNAL I/O ter-
minals, because such cables would virtually make a sort of “antenna” to pick up
external noise. To avoid this problem, use metal connectors, shielded cables, and
external circuits housed in a shielded case. Connect them to the tester’s housing
(do not connect the COM line to a shield or an earth ground). These measures
insulate SIGNAL I/O-related circuits from the external environment, thus reduc-
ing malfunction due to noise.
