13. Header Descriptions
Headers J10 and J11 may be configured to select the Monitor section power source.
Header J12 may be used to select the power source for the Meter Section.
Header J5 may be used to select the power source for the Meter LCD. This includes the CP2400 Meter LCD
controller (U3). Normally the LCD will be powered from the same source as the Meter section, as selected above.
Alternatively, the LCD may be powered from an MCU port pin. This provides a lower current consumption when the
LCD is inactive.
Headers J7-9 may be used to select which components in the Meter section are included in the current
measurement.
