This allows me to turn on and off the system with the battery attached (See first pic in post http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=1429 ). Other wise you will have to put a SPST switch inline with the positive or negitive battery wire to shut it off but that disables charging when you want the screen off. Definitely best is to somehow wire a momentary switch to the board so you get full functionality from it.
So your switch goes over the power line.
You need a "tactile button" for the motherboard.
