Now you can plug the battery and test the device wherever. To plug the battery:
We are going to use a 3.7V battery plugged directly to the board on its battery connector.
With the switch at its OFF position, plug in the battery connecting the power cable from it
(colored red) to the positive connector (+) and the ground cable (colored black) to the
negative connector (-).
BE CAREFUL SINCE CONNECTING THE WIRES WRONG MAY DAMAGE THE WASP.
Once the battery is connected, you can turn ON the board what should make one of the
LED blinks briefly. If you press the reset button, you will see this behaviour again.
Power from the USB
It is possible to power WASP from the USB port and, in this case, omit the battery. When
the USB cable is connected to the board, a green LED located by the USB connector will
light up, indicating that the connection has been made. It should be possible to make use of
an AC-USB power converters, as the ones sold to be used with portable devices like digital
cameras, mobile phones, etc. However this has not been tested with WASP and we don’t
recommend it unless you have made sure it will fulfill the power limitations mentioned
above.
