Yes, I'm good-looking forward to spring, which is almost here.....

It would be really cool if the modules could be stacked like an Arduino shield-you could add as many or as few as you needed. The VFD interface should include a few additional relays and inputs; you never know what somebody will need. Also, what about a display module? That way the LCD display could also be remote mounted. I remember how I had to work to figure out where to put my ModIO in order to get the display where it needed to go on the controller box. And f course-Mach4 as well as Mach3 plugins!

Yes, I can accommodate an isolated 0-10V control voltage. I was thinking of a VFD interface module. This would the voltage output include, relays to control the FWD/REV RUN/STOP terminals, etc. IT should be able to be used with VFDs and with Motor controllers such as the KBIC controllers. The small I/O blocks is a good idea. I'll look at a small module where different I/O boards can be plugged into them, a bit like an Arduino shield.
