MDC diff pump request output via CAN

Dear MoTeC team,
is there a chance to add diff pump request output to the CAN stream of the MDC (same mirrored signal like pin 16 - Pump relay output), maybe added to the existing diagnostic flags CAN frame?

The purpose would be to activate a pump via CAN and keep all the pump logic that you already have inside the MDC (with manual bleed override, safety timeout and so on).

I imagine the MDC's become older yet they are still used for new builds that do all the stuff via CAN nowadays.

Kind regards,
Mike

+1 for this.

Alternatively if the Pump Relay Output pin could be configurable as optionally low side drive for applications where an MDC is used in other than a plug and play scenario. Same for brake switch input would also be helpful.

Unfortunately due to the age of the MDC we are no longer updating the functionality or software.
