Hi,
I just got my MX 222 USB
I was just wondering about GPO 4, 5 & 6. Can i transfer the connector to the +5v so i can use it as a Low power GPO? move it to the left coz its on the right side (last row of the GPO pins). Do i need a resistor for it if am going to plug LEDs on GPO 4, 5 and 6 ?
Thanks.
PS am getting a camera so i can post pictures it looks awesome great product

Let me know when the 204-25 PC USB comes out this is a elite product

the "high" power gpos do not have any current limiting on them, so you will need to add a resistor.

Hello...
If you transfer the jumper, the high powered GPO's will have 5 Volts. Be aware that these GPO's do not have current limiting resistors.
