6 STANDALONE
6.1 Power the Board
Micro USB 5V
The D-01 PCB can either be supplied using a 5V USB port on any PC/Laptop/Powerbank
or with an 5V AC socket adapter.
If the board is correctly powered, the status LED on the HCU should be active (green,
blinking).
The „standalone“ mode of the plyon® flex development kit allows direct onboard
interaction without having to connect additional hardware or installation of readout
software. Its strength lies in intuitive and quick learning of how the sensors function and
what affects sensor performance and characteristics most. For detailed signal analysis
or even table top prototype mockup setups please visit the respective chapters „data
stream“ or „prototype“.
ATTENTION: Connect to one power supply only! either USB or through the pin header
input (read more about powering the system via the pin header in chapter 8). Connecting
two power supplies simultanously may result in damages to the device and sensors or
injury and property damage.
