I have mine mounted on a piece of plywood in a closet with screws through the DB9 connectors. I am planning on moving my entire mh wiring setup from the closet down to the basement (too hard to work on the wiring in the wall). I am planning on acquiring a 19" rack, but would be very interested in how others have setup their systems. I would be very interested in photos (send to me direct if too large for the mh list) I would like to use several cat5 patch panels for maximum flexibility, but am not too sure the best way to hook everything up for digital I/O, analog I/O and relays. I currently have 2 weeder DIO boards, 1 analog, and a 16 relay board. It has evolved into quite a mess over the last 4 years. -Craig --- Danal Estes <da...@ea...> wrote: > I used a plywood board for the DIOs, Relays, etc. etc. Ply is mounted on a > shelf in a 19" rack.
