J1, Power

Middle pin of the 5-pin connector (pin 3) is the battery input pin.
End pin (pin 5), on the right, is the ground connection.
The right 2 pins are from R1 providing both normally open and a normally closed connections.
The last connection, on pin 4, is the normally open pin from relay R2. This relay may be configured to switch either power or ground. Ground is switched by movinf the fuse from the "F2" position to the "F3" position.
This set of connections are terminted with #6 studs installed directly on the board. If we can find brass machine screws, they may be sopldered to the board to improve conductivity.

The power pads are 0.375" diameter and are spaced 0.500 apart.

Ring Terminals for 12/10 AWG wire #6 or 3.5mm. These part numbers have a narrow ring (less than 0.290 diameter) to allow adequate clearance on the board and they are not insulated (so they require heat shrink after crimping & soldering).

J10, Control

The control connecion is using a simple screw terminal block with 65 connections. 12 volts and ground are on the ends (+12V on pin 1 and GND on pin 6).
The two coil terminals from each relay are presented on the connector allowing flexibility in the control connections.
The 12 volt line is fused with F10 (nominally 5 Amps fuse)
Spare pads are provided on the +12V and GND nets to allow connections to be made directly on the bottom of the board.

Diodes D1/D2

Pads are provided for mounting a diode or resistor across the coil on the bottom of the board. This is to allow the board to be controlled using a FET or Transistor. .

PAC-TEC Enclosures

These aren't carried by Digikey.
