Hey Dave

Care to share on the "clever way of daisy chaining interlocks " or is that for purchasers only?

"color over ride buttons for alignment" I'm assuming means full power momentary non adjustable control of three lasers?

Expected price is $250AUD a board.

Isn't that about the same price as an (unboxed) EtherDream or a RIYA Multibus?

With that kind of money, purchasing a break-out when you can get a full-featured Ethernet DAC for the same price starts to look a little pointless.

[dave]

I think you have overlooked a few things, especially the lack of professional software for either dac!

With either of your mentioned dacs, you still need to worry about driving a shutter, possibly driving diffration gratings, and safety/ interlock circuitry.

This board comes into it's own with a big rig of lasers. Allowing fine tuning of white balance on the fly, mid show via dmx, or head sequencing, or via gratings..
