Re: Talon SRX Data Port Header

Interesting design ideas... We were toying with the idea of mounting directly to the talon, but we went with (ironically) more ribbon cables. We basically feed all the data ribbon cables into one board that puts all the signals into a 34-pin ribbon cable which goes out to a board closer to the actual encoders and whatnot to reduce on messing with getting the encoder wires all the way back. I may end up adapting picklenerd's design into a board that supports multiple talons...I hadn't thought of using a jumper to switch between 5v and 3.3v for the quad. encoders. Maybe I'll revise our current design if we get a bit of pocket change, we JUST ordered boards tonight.
