CRAPOLA!  NEVERMIND!  I was wrong and thinking of the bridged version (the one I use here. . .)
SORRY, MY BAD.

Each socket on the handyboard will control 1 (ONE, UNO, UN. . .)
Wirz _non-bridged_ 18200 board.  Since the non-bridged version can control 2
motors, this give you 4 motors total.  Sorry about the confusion.  You can wire
them up exactly as I specified in my first email.

With the non-bridged board, each socket will control 2 boards.

So for board 1, you'll connect to pins 1 and 2 in the socket, and for
board 2 connect to pins 9 and 10.  The other pins you can do as you please
(for the brake, current sense, and thermal sense)

I think I am a little confused by the wording of this.  I am using the
non-bridged board, so 1 socket on the HB controls how many boards?

Thanks for all your help.  Really appreciate it!

YES.  Take the drivers off the handyboard, because now
the wirz boards will  connect to those sockets.  If you
have the bridged 18200 board, then each  socket can
control 2 boards.  If you have the non-bridged version
(ie, the wirz  board will control 2 motors
independently) then each socket connects to two  boards.
