Hey,

We have an atom Pro 40M and the development board, but the power LED won't light up and it doesn't seem that there's any voltage going through the voltage regulator. Are we missing something? I have a deadline, and it's not turning on lol! The board just arrived, and I did ground myself before touching the board. Using a 9V battery connected to the Vcc and Vin pins.

Please help! Thanks very much!

Hah, never mind, I got it working. Had the wires in the wrong place :)

Odd that the dc connection to the wall didn't actually do anything though...

Hello again.
I highly recommend you get a 9Vdc wall adapter for this as soon as possible. I once saw two posts in a week here in the forums about mysterious intermittent problems on development boards. Turns out both were due to dying 9V batteries!
Just a word of caution.
