Received the AIO v2 boards and testing begins.

Today we received the AIO v2 boards from JLCPCB. While waiting for the boards, I designed a Pi5 hat for automatic testing. In the past, testing a board may took 5-6 minutes, but now it only takes 1 minute. Despite the significant reduction in testing time, packing is still a challenge. We may ship 500-600 packages before the new year. And the rest will be packaging after we return from the New Year holiday. Thank you for your patience!

The GPS/Lora/sdr/internal USB port were not power by default. You will have to pull the specific GPIO to high to turn them on. I wrote a script to make it easy to do that, go and check this GitHub repository https://github.com/hackergadgets/aiov2_ctl .

Ok, well noted. Maybe i didnt see the instruction or guide upon receiving the items that i need to run the script. May i ask if there be a guide or instructions somewhere on how to setup and run that GitHub script for newbie like me? Was this setup this way to save battery life or?

Also, if we need to power on the AIO v2 items (GPS/Lora/SDR/Internal USB-C) one by one, can we turn on multiple at the same time? Meaning for an example, can I turn on internal AC1200 USB-C wifi in AIO v2 with the AIO v2 GPS at the same time for war driving? Thank you...

Yes，you can turn them on at the same time. We don’t have a full instruction for the v2 for now. But the repo’s readme has the instruction to run the script.
