Jumper settings

PowerTALK 101 contains two printed circuit boards:

Power supply board

No jumpers or options on board

A.

One 2-pin, 0.3” spaced connector connected to power input
This connection is connected to terminals X1:1,5 and X1:2,6.

B.

One 2-pin, 0.1” spaced connector with output 12VDC, 50mA
This supply is not needed by PowerTALK 101, but can be used by the user’s
equipment

C.

One set of screw terminals for output 5VDC, 4A. N.B. Observe polarity:
The RED bootlace lug is +5V, whilst the BLUE bootlace terminal is 0V.
The communications common signal, 0V, can be switched to earth by
the disconnect terminal between X1:3 and X1:7
