LabSat 3 Expansion port

The 'EXPANSION' connector on the rear of LabSat 3 gives access to a number of signals including CAN Bus, RS232, 1PPS and Digital input/output. Accessory RLACS202 is used to provide user signal access for integration into the users test system. Pin functions are as follows:-
 

NumberNameI/OFunction
11PPSOSignal from Internal GNSS monitor. Becomes active when monitor is locked. 5 V Level. 25 mA
2DIGOOUser digital output. 5 V Level. 25 mA max
3DIGIIUser digital input. Up to 12 V input level. Detection threshold=2.5 V
