Serial FACET card
Any chance for a FACET card with 2+ serial ports (preferably all full RS232 / RS485 / RS422 compliant).
Kind Regards,

Re: Serial FACET card
It is technically possible. In fact FACET interface includes LPC for easy integration of SIO. CompuLab currently does not plan in-house design but a 3rd party design is possible.

Cost wise, it's cheaper to use several USB to RS-232 adapters.
The only 2 reasons to use a FACET card for serial;
Second might be nice, but only medium quantity, (>1,000), will justify custom engineering. That's still expensive.
And only large quantity, (>10,000), would interest most OEMs, (like the maker of the fitlet).
