Default Powersync user Guide

I found this somewhere and found it to be very intuative as I could not find any tutorials on it,only conflicting views So its a good platform to start experimenting from
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Tips for your PowerSync . Below, are some tips and warnings to be aware of. Remember, you are experimenting - "there is no one set way to "skin the cat", so be patient and you will ultimately obtain the results you are looking for.

There is a 5K trimmer pot. with an adjustment screw on top. It is a 25 turn pot. When you are setting your ohms, make sure to not have anything connected to the PowerSync unit.
This includes the serial cable, power supply, card slot.
Your setting will not be accurate if you do not do this. You should never adjust the pot with the power on - damage will occur.

Sometimes, it us helpful to make reference marks on the pot to help you remember various settings. There are 2 LED's on the board. The red one indicates power is on. The other LED shows status - if your operation is successful, it will show green, if the operation fails, the LED will show red. The board has a DIP switch.

There are seven switches. Numbers 6 & 7 are not used at this time. In order, here is what the switches do: Number 1 - Clock is at 18.4Mhz Inverted Number 2 - Clock is at 18.4Mhz Non-Inverted (This is the normal position) Number 3 - Clock is at 9.2Mhz Inverted Number 4 - Clock is at 9.2Mhz Non-Inverted Generally, you will have switch 2 on unless you encounter an especially troublesome situation.

This is where the experimentation comes in!! Number 5 - This enables the flash - In order to flash the 2313, this switch must be on. If you do not have it on when attempting to flash, you will receive a "device not connected" error. This switch should only be on when you are flashing. Otherwise, leave it in the off position. Keep in mind, only one switch should be on when operating the unit - either flashing or regular use.

The unit will accept any female 2.1mm power plug - polarity does not matter due to the use of the bridge rectifier. Voltage can range from 7 to 12 Vdc. Your power supply should have a minimum power rating of 150ma. (300 seems to be a good number). Keep in mind that the higher the voltage, the hotter the voltage regulator will become. It does get hot!! Be carful!!
