Powering up.

[tazman]

I just completed the switch/light buildup/installation.

Two questions:

1. Is the toothed washer supposed to go under the outside nut?

2. Can I power the power supply up without having any module connected so I can test the voltage on the ribbon cable and make sure the led is connected properly? (I will be building them on Sunday, I hope)

Thanks,

Roberto

1. Is the toothed washer supposed to go under the outside nut?

It doesn't hurt anything to use it outside, but we usually use it inside for a cleaner appearance. We also bend the outer indexing tab on the large inside washer so it prevents the inside nut from turning.

2. Can I power the power supply up without having any module connected so I can test the voltage on the ribbon cable and make sure the led is connected properly?

Yes, the PS03 will produce correct voltages even with no load. It's also a good idea to inspect the WH01 to make absolutely sure there are no crossed wires.
