demo board can be powered by the STEM in the Gym Generator. 

Instructions below assume that power is being supplied by the 

battery pack.

connect the (-) terminal of first battery to the (-) terminal of the 

second battery. 

2.  Using a red lead, connect the (+) terminal of the battery pack to 

the (+) terminal of the power in side of the power switch area.  

3.  Using a black lead, connect the (-) terminal of the second battery
