Hello good day, my name is Sezer. I **** the owner of SezerDuino software and informatics company. I would like to ask you a question about a module you developed. You have BTSR smart Matrix warp V08.0S02.0 module. With this module I can get images from dotmatrix. Can you help me with getting a second image (same image) and transferring it to the back of the machine? I **** waiting for your answer. Thanks in advance.
