Connecting to the RM57 Launchpad Board

I am working with a company that wants to use this board in a demonstration.  To be able to use all of the pins that we are needing to use I need to connect to the proto board connections.  I am wondering if there is a recommended method for use in a rough environment. The demo hardware will be towed along a gravel road.  Obviously the easiest way to connect to the board is to solder to the open hole and then put connectors on the wires.  Any other suggestions?

    Hi Norma,

    Super. We'll if you look at www.ti.com/.../tidm-hahscpto we built a board that connected to all of the HET pins which meant 180 of the 0.1" pitch pins/receptacles. I took some close-up pics for the writeup.

    I have a hard time prying the two boards apart when they are mated this way so I wouldn't be worried about gravel.
    And if you use the mounting holes to bolt the boards together on top of the force per pin it should be really solid.
