PXI-6255 Analog Input and the SCB-68?

The answer to the following should be easy, but I have not been able to find the answer either through the NI Knowledgebase or Google.
We ordered and received an SCB-68 connector block to go with a PXI-6255 multifunction I/O card. We ordered the pair as the web ordering page for the PXI-6255 recommended the SCB-68 as an option.

I cannot find the proper signal map for the SCB-68 when using the PXI-6255. The manual shows a number of drawing for NI boards but none for the "M" class board. How can I determine which terminals on the SCB-68 are mapped to the signals of the PXI-6255.

Hi Doug-
 
You can find the pin maps on the Quick Reference Labels for the SCB-68, as made available in this KnowledgeBase entry. 
 
The first connector (connector0) is shown in the map SCB-68 M Series conn 0.pdf.  The second connector (connector1) is shown in the map SCB-68 6225 & 6255 conn 1.pdf.
 
You can also find a pinout in Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) by right-clicking on the device name under My System>>Devices and Interfaces>>NI-DAQmx Devices and choosing "Device Pinouts".
 
Hopefully this helps-
