I can't seem to find a block wiring diagram in the for any of the flight
computers.  There's verbose descriptions of the screw terminals, but even
those leave me guessing a bit.  There are also other connectors on some
boards that I do not know what they are for.

 

For instance, the Telemetrum wiring chart says:

1 Switch Output Switch connection to flight computer

2 Switch Input Switch connection to positive battery terminal

3 Main + Main pyro channel common connection to battery

4 Main - Main pyro channel connection to pyro circuit

5 Apogee + Apogee pyro channel common connection to battery

6 Apogee - Apogee pyro channel connection to pyro circuit

 

So here is where my confusion comes in.  For instance:  Pins 1 & 2 appear to
be the pins you connect the switch on the airframe across.  However, pin 2
mentions connection to positive battery terminal.  Does that mean that pin 2
makes a connection to the battery internally or does it mean I need to loop
the switch circuit through the battery?  IF it is internal, where does the
battery connect?  Does it connect at the little white Molex header?

 

The same sort of confusion comes in on the pyro channels.  A simple block
diagram would solve all my confusion.  Can anyone provide me typical wiring
block schematics?

 

What are the little red headers for on the Telemetrum?

 

Thanks,
