I remember tailking to Chris about this some time ago.....I will see if I can get it to work, And let you know how it goes......I ordered the Mesa 5i20 board a few moments ago....
On another note, I am seeing a few machines with tool changers showing up....Are you guys using classicladder to run the tool changer?
