What is California's Proposition 65?

Answer:

California Proposition 65 is a standalone program that affects commercial goods sold in the state of CA. This was enacted in 1986 as "The safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986". Businesses, including manufacturers, producers, packagers, importers, suppliers and distributors, are required to provide warnings required under the California Code of Regulations (the “Code”) if their products or facilities can expose consumers or workers to a listed chemical above identified threshold levels, known to the state of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. The chemical list contains more than 900 substances, and this list is updated every year.

What I/O cable options exist for the NS600?

Answer:: There are four options.

1) Use two pigtail (flying lead) cables:
SGDH (1CN): JZSP-CKI01-XX(A)
NS600 (4CN): CKI-NS600-XX
Note: XX is cable length in meters: Lengths available are 01, 02, or 03 meters.

2) Use two terminal blocks with connector cable assembly:
SGDH (1CN): JUSP-TA50P
NS600 (4CN): JUSP-TA36P
Cable length for each of the above units are 0.5 meters. The terminal blocks make wiring to the host controller quick and easy.

3) Create cables for both units using two separate connector kits:
SGDH (1CN): JZSP-CKI9
NS600 (4CN): DP9420007

4) Use cable assembly with D-SUB output for a single, 3rd party I/O break board. The part number for this option is CKI-NS600D-XX. This cable is configured as a "Y" or "two headed" cable. One leg of the "Y" plugs into the amp's 1CN and the other into the 4CN on the N600. The two cables combine and terminate on the other end into a single 50 pin D-SUB connector. All 50 pins of the D-SUB are used when combining the I/O (many conductors are not used when the traditional two cable route is chosen). This D-SUB connector allows the customer to specify a 3rd party terminal block of their choice while cutting wiring time in half vs. the pigtail arrangement. For customers who have access to terminal blocks at a volume discount, this option offers substantial cost savings over the JUSP-TA50P and JUSP-TA36P. Specify 500 mm, 1m, 2m, or 3m length. For further information on this cable, refer to the CAD DWG or PDF file below. A partial list of suitable terminal blocks is also provided.

Note: XX is cable length in meters: Lengths available are D50 (.5 meter), 01, 02, or 03 meters.

What I/O cable options are there for the MP940?

Answer:: There are three options. Option #3 is NEW in 2001:

Use pigtail (flying lead) cables. Part number for this option is JZSP-CKI01-XX(A), where XX is cable length in meters: Lengths available are 01, 02, or 03 meters. This option requires two cables to configure a system; one cable for the 1CN on the SGDH and another for the I/O port on MP940.

Use terminal block + connector cable assembly. Part number for this option is JUSP-TA50P. Cable length is 0.5 meters. This option requires two JUSP-TA50P's to configure a system. The terminal blocks make wiring to the host controller quick and easy.

Use cable assembly with D-SUB output for 3rd party. Part number for this option is CKI-MP940D-XX (rev 2). Lengths available are 0.5, 01, 02, or 03 meters. This is a NEW option introduced in Sept. of 2001. This cable is configured as a "Y" or "two headed" cable. One leg of the "Y" plugs into the amp's 1CN and the other into the I/O port on the MP940. Both terminate on the other end into a single 50 pin D-SUB connector. All 50 pins of the D-SUB are used when combining the I/O (many conductors are not used when the traditional two cable route is chosen). This D-SUB connector allows the customer to specify a 3rd party terminal block of their choice while cutting wiring time in half vs. the pigtail arrangement. For customers who have access to terminal blocks at a volume discount, this option offers substantial cost savings over the JUSP-TA50P. Specify 500 mm, 1m, 2m, or 3m length.
