Rob, I have a single screen setup and I have run out of serial ports.

How about you guys developing a box to take the ethernet connection and allow 4 more RS232 inputs? I am not really wanting to add a second screen. It would mean recutting my panel a third time
I want to add ADS-B, but will lose my SL-30 input/outputs. Or, trade out the SL30 for another 430W.
I would like to add a CO2 monitor. . . .

So many toys, to few serial ports.

I asked about this as well. Even the new smaller screen would require major changes to my panel. However, I would love it if they made a screen the size of a Dynon D6 because that would be an easy swap.

I would like to add +1 to the above suggestions.

I'd be most interested in a small gadget box that not only provided additional serial ports, but also accomodated the connection of the pitot and static lines. Moving the Pitot & Static connections to a separate box would allow removal of the screen without breaking the Pitot/Static lines (and requiring a leak test..)

Perhaps this could be incorporated into a slightly larger Arinc interface box?

Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Dick
