Re: Dashboard

Moving that jumper every time you want to switch between data streams is devilishly inconvenient. We wired up a SPDT switch to a servo connector (i.e. the female end of a PWM cable) plugged on to the dashboard pins so we can just flip the switch back and forth.

That switch has been incorporated into our Operator Console for the past few years. It's very convenient.
