michael_kent123 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 This may seem like a basic question but I am confused about how I can connect the Mark IV to the battery pack. The Mark IV has five connection points: USB (for external storage for modules), ANT (antenna), WAN / LAN, PoE LAN (for the Ethernet connection) and PWR (for the AC Adapter). The "Pineapple Juice" battery has two connection points: USB Out and USB In (for the charger cable). What I do not understand is how I am supposed to connect the two. The manual says I need to use the "USB to DC barrel cable" which I have. Where do I plug the USB end into? Where do I plug the DC end into? Thanks!

Sebkinne Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Well, I think you answered your own question there ;) Battery pack -> USB part of barrel adaptor -> PWR port on the pineapple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_kent123 Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 Yes but the DC end cannot connect to the PWR port. This is the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebkinne Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Yes but the DC end cannot connect to the PWR port. This is the problem. Then you have the wrong barrel connector. Can you take some pictures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spike12233 Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 That white lead is for charging the pineapple, do you have another connector that is black and has a USB on one end and a barrel on the other end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_kent123 Posted December 15, 2012 Author Share Posted December 15, 2012 Thanks - I found the correct cable! For some reason I misplaced it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
