Board jumpers and indicators 

This chapter describes the jumpers and indicators that are present on the controller board. 

3.1

 

Jumper USBPWR 

 

This jumper is used to power the board via the USB interface. The board can also be powered 
through an external pin.  

WARNING: 

If the board is powered externally make sure that the USBPWR jumper is removed 

because else the USB interface will get externally powered which can damage the USB port. 

3.2

 

Jumper PRG 

 

If this jumper is place the board will skip the bootloader mode and will go directly to starting the 
firmware.
