The CVIO (analogue) option is complete and shipped with the first run.
All the electronics for the analogue outputs are located inside Cirklon
itself.
The breakout box is simply 24 connections from a DB25 socket to 24 jack
sockets.
We are close to having these ready for the first run customers, and will
have them available to ship with the second run.

The next production run of Cirklon itself will be ordered once I have
finalised and tested some engineering changes.
These are purely internal, so the spec is unchanged.
I had a lot of trouble during the first assembly run with the alignment of
the LEDs on the front panel.
For the next run I'm switching to surface mount LEDs and light pipes.
There will also be some changes to internal cabling to reduce complexity.
There will be no functional difference for the end user.

I'd like to be able to give you an accurate idea when the next run will
ship.
However, we are dependent on external contractors for population of the
circuit boards.
The 6-8 week lead time we were given for the first run ultimately stretched
to 20 weeks for the final boards to arrive.
Needless to say, that was hugely frustrating for ourselves and our
customers, so we'll be using a different factory this time.
Our target for the next run will be October.
I believe the bulk of the run is already spoken for, so please get your
enquiry in asap, to sales@sequentix.com
