Add a second 7i73 >> solved<<

Yes, I agree. I actually got my first prototype of a 7i73 shield soldered up today but it will be a while before I have all of the hardware to test it out fully.. It will live with the Odroid H2+PC which also plugs into the board.





The RJ45's are there to break out a couple of wires normally used for PoE from the 7i76e ethernet cable to carry the estop.

The board breaks out the Odroid UARTS into a RS485 and a normal DB9 to a header.

I'm hoping my pendant receiver will also hook to the 7i73 too.

Order for one Lhb04b-6 is on its way.

Thanks to all for chiming in.
