-You can also power Vizy through the I/O connector, which can be convenient since the [[wiki:pinouts|I/O connector]] terminal blocks are easy to use.  The disadvantage is that you lose the [[wiki:pinouts|12V output]] for the time being (the 12V output is designed to also be a power input.)  To power Vizy through the [[wiki:pinouts|I/O connector]] hook the negative side of the supply to one of the Ground pins (pin 1 or 8) and the positive side to the 12V output (pin 2).  The same conditions apply to this method as apply to powering Vizy through the power input connector, including reverse-polarity protection.
