IoTT's video: A closer look at the RedHat Shield Video 97

The basic idea is simple: If you have a working DCC++EX system, all you need to do is adding a RedHat++ shield on top of the stack to make it a LocoNet system that allows you to keep using your LocoNet throttles and to connect LocoNet devices like block detector modules, signal driver boards or additional boosters. Last week I received the second revision of the shield board, so it is time for a more detailed look at the functionality.
