Can you share how the scripts work? That seems to be the most interesting part, but is omitted from the article. The only technical details are UART + an opto-coupler.

> Both devices run custom scripts designed to handle data transmission reliably rather than quickly. This approach limits throughput, but reliability is paramount for critical monitoring, where losing data is unacceptable. The scripts are finely tuned to ensure that every log entry is transmitted securely without risk of cross-contamination between networks.

Yep they are pretty simple, on one end you have a python script that listens to syslog messages, when get gets an interesting one it converts into a binary string and sends out over GPOI14.

This goes through an opto coupler

On the other end there a python script listening on GPIO16, it takes a string of binary data, decodes, checks it's valid, then creates a tagged syslog message. Syslog is configured to forward everything onto a central location for folks to monitor.

Hope that makes sense.
