I’m encountering more challenges.
Running my Notecard + Notecarrier powered with USB-micro on the carrier board, things works OK. Also with the battery connected at the same time. Battery connected to BAT on the the carrier. When disconnecting the USB-cable strange things start to happen.
Reconnecting the USB I cant connect with terminal. I need to power cycle the board to be able to connect the terminal again.
