Introduction

This document contains information necessary to successfully install your hardware.

WARNING

The  STA-3108A1 is not intended for use in circuits carrying voltages in excess of 30V RMS, 42.4V peak,
or 60VDC.

Descriptions

The screw terminals on the STA-3108A1 screw terminal connector let you connect field wiring to another board such as a
KPCI-3108 board using an IEEE-1284 C-C cable. The screw terminals are labeled from 1 to 36 and correspond directly to the
functions of the pins on the main I/O connector on the KPCI-3108 board. For example, if pin 24 is assigned to the analog
function OP0, use screw terminal 24 to attach a hardware output 0. Refer to the User’s Guide for the board to which you are
connecting the STA-3108A1 for detailed wiring information.

The STA-3108A1 has a 50-pin connector that maps the required signals to enable the use of the EXP1800 (Channel Expansion,
16 Channel Multiplexer Board) with the KPCI-3108.

The KPCI-3108 does not output mux control signals on [XOP0..XOP4] in all software modes. When using EXP-1800, the
KPCI-3108 outputs must be configured for mux control. For the STA-3108A1 functional specifications, please see the
STA-3108A1 user manual. For the EXP-1800 functional specifications, please see the EXP-1800 user manual.

The STA-3108A1 panel has rubber feet and mounting holes.
