Title: ModIO Power In
Post by: HillBilly on March 06, 2007, 09:22:09 AM

Is it OK to bypass the regulator on the ModIO and supply 5 volts regulated to the terminals ( Labeled 5 volt and ground.)?

Thanks,
Darek

Hi Darek,

Yes you can supply the ModIO with aregulated 5Vd supply via the apropriate screw terminals. Just make sure you don't connect a supply via the barrel jack or the Vac screw terminals.

Cheers,

Peter.

Hey peter,

Thanks for the affirmation! I have been using one with a cutoff USB cable for power.
