The break-out box provides easy access to all signals on the I/O connectors. Using the OP8615 breakout box, you manually generate circuit faults (open circuit and short circuit) using jumpers to either
break contact or connect a circuit. You can analyse and test electronic equipment by specifically testing
each component and its connection.

By installing the break-out box as a link between the unit under test (ECU, motor controller, etc.) and
the simulator, you can insert a fault at any point in the test to assess how the unit reacts to the fault.
You can check and reconnect signals without changing the existing cable harness.

Faults are manually created by removing a jumper into the desired channel jacks. The jumper used for
the break-out box are supplied.
In the event that replacements are needed, we recommend using the original part
(SKS2-12L/1SA/N, 12mm jumper, 2mm), or an equivalent.
As a general guideline, cables from the Break-Out Box to the controller should be connected on the RED
jacks and cables from the simulator to the Break-Out Box should be connected to the BLACK jacks.
