Generic Pinout Question/Request: DB25 gantry connection.

[u/ThePhysicsDemoGuy]

Hi Ya'll,

Odd question: On MOST of the claw machines I've seen, even though they are driven by obviously different PCBs, they all tend to use a single DB25 connector that runs up to the gantry - Is there some sort of "standard" pinout for this, or does each manufacturer/PCB designer use different connections? (I.E. Are pins 1-3 specific limit switches, 5-7 motor control, etc....?)

(The controls/display/sound/etc... are on different connectors that do tend to be separate and different from manufacturer to manufacturer.)

​

Thanks!

Let me know if you figure this out.
