hi Chris,

I have a board I designed with 3 Propellers on it ( I call it the TriMotor of course )

I needed most of one Prop for the user interface, Keyboard, mouse, VGA etc. the other two are set-up so I can use most of their I/O capability for machine control.

I have a 2 wire bus and a simple communication function I wrote that lets all three Props communicate with each other on-board.

It's been a nice controller for a new machine I developed.

There are many experiments in progress ... But connecting Propellers is no way easier than connecting any micros
A friend of mine used the following low cost solution: A standard 64/96-lines bus motherboard. Note the perfect spacing!

Hi Christopher.

Sorry I'm so late in this thread...

Rob7 post the correct link...

I promised to post some spin code about it, but I still can't...I will soon (I hope).

It is about one propeller master, with 16 props as slaves.. in a paralell bus configuration.
