Connector Pin-outs
This appendix provides connector pin-out information for the IT2020
Reader Logic Card and the IT2611 RF Module.
IT2020 Reader Logic Card
This section provides pin-outs for the interface connectors on the IT2020 Reader
Logic Card.
Tag Data/Control
The communication path between the IT2020 Reader Logic Card and the IT2611 RF
Module runs through the input/output (I/O) module that is connected to IP slot A. The
I/O module connects to the RF module through a ribbon cable terminating at a DB-25
connector mounted on the RF module interface bracket. The tag data/control cable
from the RF module connects to this DB-25 connector.
Table E-1 shows the pinout of the DB-25 connector. Signal I/O is with respect to the
reader logic card.
