It kept BINH at 1 V instead of Zero and that seamed (...) (26 years ago, 3-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi guys, The handy board specification does not tell the number of digital outputs it has. I need at least four digital outputs from the board in order to make my robot function. Is there any way I can do this? Thanks, -anton (26 years ago, 31-Jul-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
