 ==== The Stack ====
-Connectors on the stack modules carry power lines 0V and +5V for the electronics on each board, attached devices may require separate supplies. There are four control lines, these are Data out, Data in, Clock and Strobe. When the interface receives a message the Strobe line is activated in order to read the current state of Inputs into the shift registers. The Clock is then activated in multiples of 8 pulses and data is sent out and received by the interface. When shifting is complete the Strobe line is activated again to output the new data to the layout devices.

 The PTP system operates independently, requiring no computer interface module, and accommodates up to 960 inputs and outputs from both ends simultaneously, with an update rate of approximately 20 times per second.
