[labnetwork] Interlocks - what do you use?

[Michael Rooks]

We use relay controllers from National Control (https://store.ncd.io) 
like this one 
<https://store.ncd.io/product/industrial-high-power-relay-controller-2-channel-uxp-expansion-port/>. 
You can configure them with a variety of communication ports. We use 
wired ethernet. The relays are controlled with Badger, the commercial 
version of Coral, from an Amazon server. If you are familiar with Coral, 
then it would be easy to switch to Badger (badgerlms.com).

This discussion comes up so often that we should make a FAQ file for it.
