V1, V2 Zeus16 parts difference?

[urthegman]

If I have a V1 Zeus board that I haven't gotten around to building yet and would like to build the V2 instead. In addition to the V2 pcb,what additional parts would I need, and would it be practical???

You would need 16 8 pin headers, 3 8 pin sockets, 3 485's, 3 2 pin headers, 3  termination resistors, and 19 jumper caps.  While not expensive, it would only be practical if you need the abilities of the Ver 2 Zeus because you would be wasting a good ver 1 board if the Ver 2 ability to set the universe by port is not really needed in your configuration.

Thanks for the great advice, since I don't need to set the universe by port it would be a waste for me to go through the added expense and extra work for a feature that for me is unnecessary.
