    Quoted from pinballrockstar:

    A very nice guy at the Dutch pinball open gave these prints to us for the projects to come,we thanked him for them but does anybody know what these are?
    We have no clue what to do with them
    It is puzzling me for months now?

    I send them to you via Philipp. As Mark pointed out one is a opto sender board/current limiting resistor board. The blue ones are opto receiver breakout boards (we did multiple designs). The top right ones (break them apart) can be stack on top of a FAST board. The left one is a combined sender/receiver board (probably too dense). There is a third blue one which is a standalone opto breakout board which works with SW-16 and FAST (I may have omitted that since you are on FAST). The red board is a playfield connector board which is used to distribute power below the playfield (High Voltage; large connectors and 5V; small connectors) and acts as a single entry point for all connectors. You can stack a fadecandy onto it (in case you want to use that). You can connect the bus (either FAST or P3-Roc) using RJ45 connectors. You can add two indicator LEDs (HV and 5V) and some capacitors to against 5V spikes.

    You can get all headers at Reichelt.de or probably at other retailers in Germany. Those larger .156mil Molex connectors are sometimes a bit tricky to get in Europe. I can send you a part list if you want to use one of the boards.

    They can hold like a small windowframe normally?
