Precautions

MEAS Jumper

  • Since we are cutting the MEAS Jumper on the OLA, the OLA will always need to be powered by battery.
  • In order to power the OLA from the computer (using a USB) or a lithium battery, the MEAS Jumper pins will have to be connected back together using a jumper shunt. However, if a jumper shunt is applied and the pins are connected back together, make sure the D-Cell battery pack (or other battery) is not connected.
  • Thus, having the battery pack disconnected is extremely important when connecting to the computer.
