Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Gecko 5V supply

Hello all,

There has been much discussion on how to make a 5 volt supply to avoid
using the pc's power supply. How do you use the external power supply
with the Gecko G201? Someone mentioned opening up the drive and changing
a jumper? More information on this would be greatly appreciated.
