Breakout Boards

Getting access to control signals in CNC systems can be a real pain. We know, we do it daily! Whether probing with an oscilloscope or meter or attempting to disconnect and reconnect a signal, today’s shrinking connectors make it a real challenge.

To make troubleshooting easier, we offer “BoB” BreakOut Boards, allowing you to quickly and reliably probe signals on a variety of connectors. BoBs also allow you to easily interrupt signals for debugging purposes!
