Chapter 6. Connector pinouts

This table combines the pinouts for all connectors on the borehole sensor and surface control unit. Control signals are normally active low, but active high versions can be supplied on request.

Column (a): The single connector on the sensor, a 32-way mil-spec waterproof plug (02E-19-32P).

Column (b): The SENSOR connector on the breakout box, a 32-way mil-spec plug (02E-19-32P).

Column (c): The RECORDER and HCU connectors on the breakout box, both 26-way mil-spec plugs (02E-16-26P).

Column (d): The POWER connector on the breakout box, a 10-way mil-spec socket (02E-12-10S).

Note: The “velocity / acceleration mode switch” pin is used by the automatic centring process to switch the instrument temporarily into a mode where its response at normal frequencies is flat to acceleration, and thus in linear proportion to the mass position. The surface control unit returns the sensor to its operational mode once the centring process is completed.
