Talking I never thought I would get so excited about a 6.5" x 4.25" plastic box!

I finally found Section 2 of the manual, and it sheds little light on the Custom Circuit Board.

I wonder if it has to be a hand soldered piece, or if you can go out and make a comercial PCB?

It doesn't sound like you can since that would NOT be from Digikey.....though if you went out and bought the copper clad board and etched it yourself, it might be fine.

Also, it looks as though ALL the custom work being done with this board MUST be contained on the board and within the walls of the Box. So if a wire wants to have say a current sensor on it, it seems the wire must come "through" this box.....since the detector would have to be within the walls of the box.

Am I reading too much into this?
