Tentative Result - info only
=====================

At long last it *appears* that I have a working pair of full magnetometer support boards that function as expected over shielded twisted pair and powered from the local Odroid N2 supply.

I believe the distance is 30 m, but it is coiled so need to measure.  No investigation yet of reliability, but the final proof of concept seems to be in hand.

At least one more spin of the prototype boards is necessary, as agreement on power derived from the so-called 'PMOD' connector has never been resolved.

This pair stays with me for further testing - evaluation sets will come later for VERY selected testers.  These take me about a week to assemble (pair) all together.
