Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Why not just use the Serial ports on both boards to talk to each other
Connected directly the 2 boards should transfer data fast enough for most needs.
