3.2 Node Boards
The manuals do a good job of showing the pinouts for each of the node and sub-node boards and what they connect to (i.e., switches, lamps, coils, motors, etc.). Refer to section 4 in the manual for details.
For the details of the node and sub-node used in the various models of the game and their inter-board connections, refer to the following sub-sections.
