Is there a rack for PiFace Digital 2, like it is for the previous model?

Rack does not exist for 40 pins, but a shim may work in it's place. PiFace PiFace Shim Module | 2445464 | PiFace

Thank you for the hint. So you think I can still use the PiRack to connect the PiFace digital2 boards via the Shim onto the PiRack and also to use Shim to connect PiRack itself to connect to raspi 40pins?
the signals to address the correct piface board from raspi are usable by using shim and reduced 26pin set?
The new PI Face relay boards for the PI2 are self stacking and would not need this, they also have way more relays on them, upto 8 if needed on a single board (With the relay extra) and that still leaves 8 more gpio on the 12 pin header
you also need to be sure the older PFDigital boards will work on the PI2 as there where changes to the SPI bus
One other thing to remember, you did not say the use. NONE of the PI face digital boards are rated for controlling mains devices (Infact anything much more than 20 or 30 V is not supported)
Thank you Peter. That sounds really interesting. I will test it out!
