DB25 Switch/LED connector
The Switch/Led connector is a DB25 Female. This connector is used to allow the HD600 to control
external LEDs or other devices requirind 15mA of current or less. Connect the LED outputs to the LED
ANODE and connect LED CATHODE to ground. If you want to connect up some other device then the
output is capable of sourcing or sinking up to 24mA at 3.3V, but we do have a series resistor of 100 Ohms
in each line. This connector also allows connecting up external contact closures to ground. In order to
connect a switch, connect one side of the switch to the switch input, and connect the other side of the
switch to one of the ground pins on the DB25 connector. Finally the connector can also supply 3.3V at up
to 100mA to an external device. The 3.3V output is polyfuse protected. The DB25 has the following
pinout:
