Test Procedure
- Test setup as above
- Test setup powered down
- Install UUT (RPI-Console card being tested)
- Disconnect USB cable to Arduino (not used for power)
- Install P1 jumper on UUT (power the test station from the RPI-CONSOLE)
- Connect USB cable from Test Computer (laptop) to UUT
- Boards should power up
- Run putty on Test Computer (laptop)
- Look in Device manager to make sure COM port was added
- Select COM port in putty
- Hit reset on Arduino Shield or attached to GVSDuino
- Verify the message comes back

Rev X3 (vs X2)
- Moved "Power Pi from USB" connector to center of card
- Rev X2 (vs X1)
- Moved connector slightly closer to the edge
- Made USB connector PWB pads longer
Rev X1 Checkout
- Micro USB mounting holes fit well
- Connector could be slightly farther to the edge
- USB connector PWB pads were too short - trimmed pins to fit
- Ordered 3 more from OshPark new X2 rev
