Abstract
Modular apparatus for coded interconnection between electronic cards and a printed circuit board, eliminates the risks of incorrect connection between a housing (9) containing a program card (8) and the bottom (1) of an auto-control container containing the printed circuit (4) and having rows of connections (6) for receiving male connections (7) arranged on one of the edges of the card (8) to connect them to the circuit (4). For each housing (9) and each row (6), the device comprises four rotary members (13, 16). The members (13) each carry a finger (17) which can engage in an orifice (18) in the members (16) when the angular positions between the members (13, 16) correspond to one another. The invention is used to make it easier to code the elements of a programmable auto-control.
