**Goal
Demonstrate what all the input and output wires (J1 and J2) on the P2140 do and where to connect them. We'll also provide a quick overview of the jumpers that control how your primary and secondary output rails behave.
**Learn
How to quickly wire and configure the P2140.
**Equipment
Screw driver, electrical tape, multimeter (optional), wire strippers, p2140
**Next Time
How to splice your AC/DC brick to power your laptop/mini computer.
Thank you! This is extremely helpful. I purchased the P2140 over a year ago, and I'm continually impressed by the amount of features packed into this device. This video guide is very useful and I can't wait to see more.
Nice work,
Looking forward for more info on the P2140.
Thanks! We'll keep them coming. If there is anything in particular you'd like to see/hear more about let us know (post or PM) and if we can make it happen we will.
I can't think of any thing that would need to be demonstrated on video. I have some technical questions that can be answered on forums. Just watching the video gives me a lot more confidence in what I'm doing.
Perhaps:
- How to add a master switch (i.e. if on allows PC to Boot when ignition active, if off then will not allow boot).
- How to connect an external PC/Mac on/off switch
- How to use the acpi / isense wires from the P2140 to the PC/MAC
Or better yet a three-way switch (ON-OFF-AUTO) for always on;always off; and switched w/ignition.Quote:
