Abstract
To provide a mechanical and electric connector system or platform that includes a readable and recordable indicia making it possible to read and record various installation states of connectors.SOLUTION: A connector system 3010 includes a male housing assembly, a female housing assembly coupled to the male housing assembly in a connected state, and a connector position assurance assembly 3350 with the indicia 3354 and a locking member that is movable between locked and unlocked positions. In the locked position, the locking member secures the male housing assembly to the female housing assembly and the indicia 3354 can be read by the scanner to signal that the connector position assurance assembly 3350 is in the locked position. In the unlocked position, the indicia is in a state in which the scanner is not enabled to read information from the indicia.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 43B
