Re: Fried relay controllers on the Digital Sidecar

There is some conformal coating but not what I have seen in the past. It is possible to open a power trace on the board that takes out part of the outputs but not everything. Can you tell me, did you look at the LEDs on the relay section of the board? They tell right away if an output is being commanded for relays.
