RevPI DI/DO/DIO Question

It may be a dumb question, but I just was thinking if it would be possibble to use the DIO modules directly as a PLC, as it internally contains a STM32. The idea is to include all the logic for controlling the inputs and outputs of the module indepently on the RevPi with a faster boot time, less points of failures (no linux), probably supporting more heating, etc. Ideally, it should be programmable and be able to communicate with a RevPi Connect to update the logic, provide other inputs (from network, wireless sensors, etc.). Does it makes sense?

Hi alvarolb, this idea is nice but (currently) not possible out of the box. You would need to modify the STM32 code which is not open source. But the schematics of the hardware are online.
