      Hi,

      I have just got my controlblock rev 2.2, I've connected it to my Pi and connected my Raspberry Pi 4 Official USB connector to it, and nothing happens.

      Should the Pi turn on when this is connected, or do I need to install the drivers first?

      Am I missing something?

      Thanks,
      Stu

        @StuMcBill Ignore me, I didn't realise that it needed the switch jumper to be bridged before it would work, I thought the power "switch" was optional.
