Using ARC Behind A Proxy And Firewall

Our school uses a Proxy Server that requires authentication to access.... I would guess that most schools do the same. DJ I have started this thread so I can get our schools technical support involved in this one. They should join this thread sometime soon.

Many moons ago, long before the dawning of the EZ-B, the first AIMEC:3 used the SD20 (I2C 20 channel servo driver) chip www.robot-electronics.co.uk/htm/sd20tech.htm...

Expanding Digitalports

I was wondering if anyone had a simple solution for adding more digital connections to the controller. One idea I had was to link an arduino to it via i2c, although I don't know where to start to do that. I need to increase the connections by about 6 ( making 26 ) minimum.
