Connecting the STP781x Screw Terminal Panel to the DT7816

To make wiring easier, you can connect the STP781x screw terminal panel to the DT7816 module. The connectors on the screw terminal panel mate directly to the Analog I/O header, Digital I/O header, and Digital Function headers on the module.  

The following figure shows the layout of the STP781x.

Tachometer Input

aThe DT7816 does not support PWM signals; therefore, screw terminal block TB3
  is not used on the STP781x screw terminal panel when used with the DT7816 module.

bBy default, general-purpose inputs 0 to 7 are configured as digital input signals and
  general-purpose outputs 0 to 7 are configured as digital output signals.

cFor the DT7816, the only signals accessible through screw terminal block TB6 are the tachometer input
  and the digital ground signals.
