Your HB5
H series computer has protection for over volta e up to 24 volts.
It does not have protection for
reverse polarity, so please take care when applyin power. The reason it does
not have reverse polarity protection is that we use the incomin 5 volts power for the USB circuitry, etc rather

Screw Terminal version
For users who prefer screw terminal connections we offer dual 25 way rows of 3.5mm pitch connectors. Due
to
the limited space available we have chosen to mark the connections usin the upper and lower case
alphabet rather than numbers.
