Dear All,

recently we got used hp5890 series II with EPC machine, but with missed EPC board. I bought on ebay EPC 6-channel card with 10-pin connector for each channel but in my hp5890 present only one 7-pin EPC cabel. Later I find out that it's different types of EPC cards in HP 5890 and also exist two channel 7-pin EPC board...
For example:

Unfortunately, no more information about how suitable this connectors, but I belive that it's same functional board...

Could you please advice whether somehow possible connect 7-pin connector of cable to 10-pin connector of EPC board. These all are available in HP 5890 but with different types...

Or I should seek other cable/board?

Thanks a lot!

With best regards,
Vadym Honcharuk

Seems I am right in my supposition... There is Art.Nr.: 19245-60702 Cable 2ch to 6 ch. Could someone confirm it?

thanks a lot!
