so a stiff pulldown to fight the pullup of the mesa card for the inputs?
I am using 7c81_5abobx2d firmware with BOB boards on P1 and P2.
Edit:
I did a little bit of digging.
- The relay pin P17 is IO7 of the Mesa ports, which is on the edge of the pull resistor array. I could desolder the array and put it back on shifted by one to remove the resistor of the pin.
- On the BOB there is a 10k pullup array on the relay pin. but the signal comes through a via in the middle of the pullup resistor and the 74HC... I could cut the trace between the via and the resistor to remove the pull up on the BOB
- solder in a pulldown resistor on the BOB (if for whatever reason the flat cable between the Mesa and BOB gets bad).
