so what is this anyway?
Below follows a description of a nice hobby-project to make an interface board that basically sits between a PC and this module
Flow-X module
This is a small but very nice modular flowcomputer for the oil- and gas-industry; since I toy with/at this thing at work, why not make a little something to make Life a bit Nicer.
interface-board
It would be nice to test test and provide stimuli for various digital/analog I/O's on the module from a PC, while meanwhile trying to keep it safe, or rather fool-proof in case I/O is misconfigured (i.e. misconfigured 'low' output connected to 'high' output) because we all make mistakes.
so this is a test
