Q. What is the maximum capacity in mAh and current rating allowed for the batteries: How to disable '''auto power on''' feature on [[X1200]]?

A: The battery capacity is generally less than 20000mAhWhen you connect an external power supply, and the maximum UPS board will automatically power on the Pi 5 motherboard while it starts charging current , this feature is 3Acalled '''auto power on''', considering that some customers need to disable this feature, so we have also disclosed the following solution to disable it: please use a soldering iron to remove the resistor indicated by the arrow in the illustration. [[File:X1200-Remove-Resistance.png|800px]] <span class="tb_red_bold">WARNING:</span> Please consider the following risks before removing this resistor:* Do not operate if you are not a professional user* The removal operation may damage the MCU, so please be careful with the operation.* Once you remove this resistor by yourself, you will '''lose the warranty''' of this product.

Q: Why does the UPS shield continue to output power when PI 5 is turned off via press the on-board button?
</div>
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
A:
The UPS shield provides enhanced power management features that intelligently monitor the power status of the Raspberry Pi 5 and automatically cut off power when the Pi is powered off. This helps optimize battery life by entering an ultra-low standby power consumption mode. It ensures efficient operation and maximizes the lifespan of the UPS battery.
 
'''To get the above features, check that the following settings are complete'''

<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
A: Please use high quality batteries from Samsung 35E 18650 lithium battery, PANPASONIC, Toshiba, etc.Do not use the battery with built-in protection circuit. For the X1203 shield: If using a lithium battery, the required voltage is 3.7V;
Do not if using a battery pack, please make sure it is a parallel battery pack.  There are 2 XH2.54-2P battery connectors on board, it is recommended to use the same type of battery with built-in protection circuit.

Q: Run <code>sudo i2cdetect -y 1</code>, can't find I2C address 0x36?
</div>
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
A:
 
1. Make sure you enable i2c interface, refer to [[How to enable I2C]]
 
2. The UPS connects to the Pi GPIO via pogo pins, If the I2C address (0x36) is not detected, Please clear the leads of pin 3 and pin 5 on the GPIO header from the bottom of the Raspberry Pi PCB and install again, and also check if the pogo pin of ups shield is in close contact with the pad position of PI 5.

There won't be any other problems, it's this poor contact that's causing it.
