It does say 7 on the site… I would have sworn there were 8 connectors, but then again, not enough sleep + not enough coffee = easily confused. Also you can always daisy chain Time Buffers if you really need more Mini-Stores.

Maybe the mismatch between the number of modules supported by the Time Buffer and the number supported by the Shift Manager is a subtle incentive to keep buying more modules in an ongoing effort to achieve maximum utilization. Though I suspect the Shift Managers support of three modules is a product of panel space and not an attempt to create the modular version of a hotdog / bun quantity mismatch.

I like the idea of multiple sets of Mini-Stores/Shift Managers, but I'm already moving the Q961 out of the 'sequencer' cabinet and unless I want to remove the Q960/963 or the Q119 (or buy another cabinet) I'm all out of room.
