[GreenKeys] USB/TTY Board Documentation

No built-in current loop on 33. Needs 20ma. Here's another tidbit from Wayne:

"One feature the UCC-6 [33 power supply] has is 48 VAC on P2 pins 3 and 4 that can be used to supply AC voltage for a users power supply to generate a current loop."

**************

So this looks like a way to do it, but for me I wouldn't know where to start. Would need someone to spell it out for me.

If there's anything anyone would like to contribute in the future-- from photos to videos to how-to articles or anything else-- I'd be glad to publish it credited to you. Heaven knows I'm a mere amateur compared to most of the people on this list, so I will only be able to share the few things I learn here and there or just link to other sites.
