Wow!  If that's the case, that is potentially dangerous... imagine having that
tied to a real world device "launch missiles" and it fires on reboot :-)

I would talk to Eddie at TS and see if he has a comment.  I expect there is a
config somewhere...  I don't see them missing a design flaw like that.

Plan B might be to install some sort of solid state inverters, and then you
program 1 = off, 0 = on.

Good luck,
Joe
