including the state of keypad modifier keys. An additional LED indicates the charge and low battery
statuses.

OVERVIEW 1-3
CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
The JETT•XL comes standard with one JETT•connect serial port with choice of full RS-232 or a choice of
two of the following: short RS-232 (2), short RS-422, short RS-485 or USB. A modular serial port with a
choice of short RS-232, USB or Charge Jack is optionally available. The JETT•XL also includes configuration
options for USB (1.1), Wireless LAN (802.11b) and Bluetooth (1.1)
DURABILITY
The case is made of General Electric Xenoy, one of the most durable chemical resistant materials available
today.
INGRESS PROTECTION
The JETT•XL is completely dust-tight and can withstand exposure to jets of water and has an IP (Ingress
Protection) rating of 65 as defined by IEC standard 529.
Although not required to maintain an IP65 rating, Two Technologies offers connector covers that help
prevent electrolysis (corrosion that occurs due to a chemical reaction between water and a connector that
conducts electricity). For maximum protection, you should replace each plug every six months. Please note,
that the product warranty does not cover JETTs that fail due to electrolysis.

USING THE 5VDC OUTPUT LINE TO POWER EXTERNAL DEVICES
The JETT supplies only one +5 VDC line. The +5 volts supplied from the JETT•connect is the same line
supplied for JETT•pack integration. The +5 VDC line to the JETT•pack does not have the charging
protection components so output voltage will be higher by approximately 0.3V to 0.4V.
The following table shows the typical voltage versus current values when using the 5VDC output line to
power external devices
Table 2-3: 5VDC Typical Output Line Voltage versus Current Values
Load Current Voltage Out
50 Ohms 0.086 Amps 4.59 Volts
30 Ohms 0.14 Amps 4.54 Volts
25 Ohms 0.23 Amps 4.43 Volts
15 Ohms 0.3 Amps 4.37 Volts
12.5 Ohms 0.35 Amps 4.34 Volts
11 Ohms 0.4 Amps 4.29 Volts
8.5 Ohms 0.5 Amps 4.21 Volts
Note: Verify your intended use and current/draw with a properly configured JETT over your expected
environmental conditions prior to product deployment.
DE-9 CONNECTORS
The DE-9 connectors emulate standard serial pin-out connections, and allow you to connect the JETT to
most desktop PCs using a standard null modem cable.

COMPACT FLASH SLOT COVER
The standard compact flash slot cover located on the top of the unit provides access to the compact flash slot
that stores memory and device cards. In addition to the standard cover, a modified cover which has a
machined opening that allows you to easily insert and remove devices cards that exceed 1.437 inches in
height, is also available.
Two phillips-head screws+ (2-56 x 5/16”) secure the cover to the top of the JETT. To insert device or
memory cards into the compact flash slot, you must first remove these screws using a phillips # 0 non-
magnetic tip screwdriver, which you can purchase from Two Technologies (Part Number 14673). You can
also purchase additional screws from Two Technologies (Part Number 12624).
For information about inserting and removing memory and device cards, see Using the Compact Flash Slot.
