3V3 digital signal to the cRIO
I am using a Raspberry Pi to send a digital I/O to the cRIO. I know that the Pi uses 3.3V (3V3) for a True, while the cRIO expects a 5V signal.

I know that with some combinations of hardware this is fine, and others cause problems. Does anyone know about the Raspberry Pi / cRIO combination?

(Note and warning: I know that putting a 5V signal into the Pi will fry it, I'm asking about the Pi --> cRIO direction.)
