942 is a symmetrical 5 object siteswap with the same throwing rhythm as 552: right-left-pause-left-right-pause... with a 1-beat pause between throws with the same hand. The 9s cross, going four times as high as a 5 ball cascade juggled at the same speed, and the 4s are non-crossing throws about 1/7 of the height of a 9. In this pattern three balls are juggled in a cascade at 9 ball height, and the other two balls go up and down on the sides of the pattern at 4 ball height.
This is an excited state siteswap, starting in the state 1111001. You can transition from the basic pattern to 942 using a 7 or 84, and back to the basic pattern by throwing two 4s or 53 after a pause:
942 starts in the same state as 933, so you can switch directly from one pattern to the other.
