GMM, is that something you can buy from WM or is that one of your many inventions?

No it's not something you can buy.  I programmed a PIC microcontroller to read the data coming from the SimpleSet encoder, convert it to a measurement, and output it to the display. Some additional circuitry had to be added to get the SimpleSet to share the display.  I have plans to add a digital display to the transmitter of my remote control so I can see where the head is without having to be at the operator console.  This is the first step towards doing that.

You should make a "kit" with the instructions and parts to upgrade from "Simple Set" to "Simple Set Plus".  You could retail them to all of us FF member's for a reduced price of course  ;D.
