8x64 Matrix Configuration
To create an 8x64 matrix, you may connect your field wiring to the 34934A by 
three methods:
Terminal Block 
You can use terminal block 34934T-002. The terminal block 
connects to the 34934A’s two D-Sub connectors; it provides 12 blocks of 12 screw 
terminals each, and an 8x64 removable overlay (supplied with the 34934T-002) 
which provides guidance for field wiring the 8x64 matrices. Follow these sections 
in order to configure and wire the terminal block:
– “34934T-002 Terminal Block: 8x64 Layout” on page 151
– “34934T-002 Terminal Block: 8x64 Jumper Configuration” on page 154
– “34934T-002 Terminal Block: 8x64 Wiring” on page 157
Configuration Block 
You can use configuration block 34934C-001. Follow 
these sections in order to configure and wire the configuration block: 
– “34934C-002 Configuration Block: Layout” on page 160
– “34934C-002 Configuration Block: 8x64 Jumper Configuration” on page 162
– “34934C-002 Configuration Block: Wiring” on page 168
Direct Wiring 
You can wire directly to the module’s D-Sub connectors using 
custom cabling. You will have to short specific pins on and between the D-Sub 
connectors to create the 8x64 configuration. Review both these sections before 
wiring to the module’s D-Subs:
– “34934A module D-Sub Connectors: 8x64 Pin Assignments” on page 173
– “34934A Module D-Sub Connectors: 8x64 Wiring” on page 175
Use of the 34934C-002 precludes use of a piggy-backed 34934T-002 terminal 
block for field wiring connections; the combination is not mechanically reliable.
