PCB: reprogramming and Chinese supplier

It’s nice at times to have an image of the PCB. I’m going to save a copy here for me to refer to when necessary.
In early February I had to reprogram a light controller card to work as a microscope card.
The difference is that the light controller cards have the brightness controlled by a slider in the graphic user interface, whereas the microscope has a potentiometer to control the brightness.
While reprogramming the card, I made some changes towards having a single dual-use program.
If the GUI slider is moved, the GUI would take over lamp control. If the ON/OFF switch next to the microscope potentiometer is activated, then the potentiometer would take over control. This would allow not only dual use of the card, but also for a microscope to have dual control over the lamp: potentiometer and software slider, with the user able to switch backwards and forwards between controls.
In December, I was contacted by a company on China which appear to be able to manufacture these cards for us.
