5. Connectors
Power and communications are found on connectors X1 through X3. These connectors are not
considered to be I/O (Input/Output) connectors.
On the remaining connectors, X4 to X25, I/O pins which share similar functionality are grouped
together. Each connector is therefore designated with a certain interface type. This gives a quick
way to easily identify the types of I/O Interfaces found on a certain connector. The pins found on
connector X6 for example, taken from the table below, are designated as AIN. This is because there
are two Analog Input pins on the connector. Note, however that the characteristic signal type is not
always the one configured by default, and that other configurations are often possible.
