Using Cytron Smart Drive Duo-10 With ARC And EZ-B

We know that ARC platform supports the Sabertooth dual DC motor drive in all its modes .. communicating via its serial packetized iface (I think).  Do you have support for the Cytron Smart Drive Duo-10 MDDS10? This is a similar module to the Sabertooth tho considerable less expensive.  It supports a packetised iface and has independent and mixed modes.

DJ .. understood .. so there is: UART0 - on dedicated (black) connector UART1 - on D5:6 UART2 - on D18:19

but simple serial only communicates in one direction .. EZ-B to module via TXD line.

ezb tx to Sabertooth rx and ensure both devices have a common ground.
