The DT7816 works with a +5 VDC power supply. Connect the optional EP394 +5 V power supply to the barrel power connector on the DT7816, as follows:

  1. Ground the chassis of the DT7816 to earth ground by connecting a grounding strap to the grounding stud on the module.Grounding_Stud.png

  2. Connect the EP394 power supply to the barrel power connector on the DT7816.

  3. Plug the power supply into a wall outlet.
    Once you have applied external power to the DT7816 module, the Power LED on the module turns solid green and the boot-up sequence is captured in the PuTTY terminal window. The DT7816 device drivers are loaded during boot up.
