Hi,
I’ve seen a few remarks about board version 8. Do you want to discuss about it? Is it too late to wish for features?
I would like to have a few switched power outputs to drive relays or such. Maybe signals (other than motor connections) in a “shield-like” arrangement, so I can put all my custom stuff on one plug-in PCB? (Maybe too custom feature: a voltage output with a trim pot to set the voltage. (In my case: to set the LED light output just right for the visual positioning camera.)) If you do the shield, maybe you can get port B in there, too, with $ associated commands?
But really, just signals in a plug in card friendly arrangement would allow me to put whatever extra electronics I fancy on one card.
