micro-fit style connector 
numbering 
This Appendix contains pinout and electrical 
specifications for the external and internal ports and 
connectors on the H8S microcontroller, motor-power 
interface, and User Control boards.

Note that layered connectors are numbered 
differently, depending on the socket type.  IDC ones 
are odd and even layers; mini- and micro-fit 
connectors use successive-position numbering. 
 
See the Figures nearby for examples.

Power Connector 
The power connector is a 3-pin microfit socket that delivers 12VDC (battery) to the 
microcontroller circuitry and separate, conditioned 5 VDC to the sonar, including power 
grounds.
