5 Connections to multi sensor
The multi sensor is connected with a flexible 16 line wire to the multi sensor print. It
shares some of the in lines as scanning matrix lines and has two separate out lines
(black and white from external connector 2).
The numbering for the multi sensor connector seen from the bottom side of the print
is shown in the next figure.

Notes:
These wires are not connected to the keyboard switches:
• Wire 18 (pink) is not connected in the keyboard
• Wire 20 (shielding) is only connected to the chassis
When one of the wires in the cable is broken, you can substitute the broken one with
either wire 18 or 20
