- Turn ON the power switch. There is a POWKEY button which you need to press for a couple of seconds.
- Three LEDs will light-up indicating that the module is preparing and checking for the connections.
Important
The voltage range for DC044 and V_IN is from 5V to 26V. You need to make sure that 5V is selected, then the responding current should be 2A.
In the case of Lithium Battery, the voltage ranges from 3.5V to 4.2V.
