how many CPU cycles are we using.

HALT, acoustic motor temp measurement

Read IMU thermistor

how to measure angle and velocity (renisha? eddy?, honeywell hall?)
USB datalogger.

set forcefield with limit test, write to EEPROM
3 state safe startup for HH and NW
test JR3 over serial.
loadwash PCB??
benchtest Rev200, in progress
debug Rev200 from S5
ROM out hall sensors.
capture the K3 zero position
