Engineer Training XL1200 Electronics Confidential 22 Sensor Control Board The Sensor Control Board\Overflow Board is a very simple connection panel, there is no IC in this board, only Connectors, Resistors and LEDS. The Board is basically divided into 4 identical partitions, each partition belongs to a specific Color and CCB.  Each partition is divided in 2, one that belongs to the Left Tank and the other to the right tank.  On this board there is also a White 4 pin Molex Connector that is connected to the Jet 132 JP3.  Through this connector, the pumps are activated or deactivated if there is an Overflow.
