JP4 and JP5 - External Power Selector: These jumpers were used
to provide the external power to pin# 8 of the external
connector. JP4 will enable or disable the power over the pin# 8.
JP is used to select the power source ( V or 12V? from PCIe
golden finger or J AUX power connector?).
JP4 Sett ngs
The pin# 8 is connected to GND, no
power supplied to DB62’s pin# 8.
(default)
The external connector DB62’
s pin# 8
will be connected to a DC power
source. The power source will be
determinted by the JP .
Warn ng!!!
At th s sett ng, please do NOT connect
the normal octopus cable sup
pl ed
w th th s product because the p n#58
was connected to GND n th s cable. It
w ll short the power source to GND and
may damage your motherboard or
