H/T/S Sensor on the Master Hub - Jumper on or off?

[ksdehoff]

Hello:

I'm confused from the forum whether or not I need to enable or disable the onboard voltage regulator if I am powering my Temp/Humidity/Solar sensor from the 6 Channel hub. Can anyone clarify - does injected power count as 'external'?

Thanks
Ken

Ken,

You need to have the jumper in place if you want the Humidity/Temp/Solar device to use the external power provided by the Master Hub. Yes injected power is external power, parasitic power is the power the device "steals" from the data line.
