Hmm... look like the same setup as mine ...

Ok, I add support for it.

Yes.

Indeed we have one:

$ remote_power -l | grep zcu102
katmai3         off        r360         off           zcu102            off

I have to look, how I can test without breaking the board... Is there
something like a bootmode switch, so I can restore the board if I broke
it? (Sorry if dummy question, never worked on the board).

bye,
Heiko
