This board is a little more advanced: you can manually switch each of the 4 wires on or off for a variety of uses:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eIf you want to have a 'charge only' device, simply switch the D+ and D- lines off\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFor power monitoring, you can do the high side (disable the V+ line) or the low side (disable the GND line)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFor tapping into the USB signal, or monitoring the power voltage, keep all the switches on and probe the labelled pads on either side\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith the onboard 4-DIP switch, you can flip to your heart's content.
