Note:

 To recharge the External Battery Pack, disconnect it

from the Hub and then connect it to the TI Wall Charger
using the USB Standard A to Micro cable. Do not use the
External Battery Pack as an auxiliary power source while it
is being charged.

Connecting the Power Source

1. Identify the Micro connector on the USB

Standard A to Micro auxiliary power cable.

2. Insert the Micro connector into the

PWR

connector at the top of the Hub.

3. Insert the free end of the cable (the "

A

" connector) into the USB port on the power

source.

4. Turn on the power source:

-

If using the TI Wall Charger, plug it into a wall socket.

-

If using the External Battery Pack, press the power button.

An auxiliary power LED on the Hub glows to show that the Hub is receiving auxiliary
power.

5. Connect the TI-Innovator™ Hub to the host calculator, using the USB Standard A to

Mini-B cable.

6. Connect the I/O Module or breadboard component to the Hub.
