I was informed by e-mail today that Parallax has discontinued the SX Controller Board.

Wasn't it a relatively new product?

    Thank you. I bookmarked your site.

    I am surprised that Parallax discontinued what I thought was a new product. Do you know why?

    My SX Controller Board blinks an LED . . . so, I guess everything is fine. [noparse]:)[/noparse]

    The problem I have with the board is that the LED for power switch position 2 does not work because of a manufacturing defect which caused the resistor inline with the LED to not be connected. I believe you have seen the picture. I do not know if this is indicative of a bad batch of boards that suffer other problems, or not.

    I'm hoping that it's an unfortunate board that slipped through. We'll swap it with a new board if you want to return it to us. Contact information is on our web site.
