6HC rev1.01 5v jumpers
-
The new 6HC came to my second printer and I see that it no longer has three jumpers for setting the 5v power supply. I also found out why this is so and that it is not a mistake.
BUT, how to use the function to control the power supply now? If SBC is used. SBC is on but 6HC will never have power until the main power supply is turned on. And that won't happen because the command has to give 6HC.
Ideas?

@petrkroupa to power the Duet from the SBC on the v1.01 or v1.1 board you can install both the 5V->SBC and SBC->5V jumpers, and don't install the INT_5V_EN jumper.
Beware of powering LED strips from the DotStar/NeoPixel connector in this configuration, because that would be likely to pass too much power through the ribbon cable.

@dc42 Thanks. This is exactly how I use it on the first printer. Sufficient 5V power supply and jumpers as you wrote. I just didn't want to solder on the new board. That's why I asked if there was any other solution.
