I'm a visual person - an array or table of obscure codes is absolutely no help whatsoever...  

I got a bunch of power switch thingies and want to use them so I can run my Pine board off battery - MAN you people make some of us punters jump through hoops!

So - red on Pin 5 of the EXP headers, and black on Pin 6?  For power on?

And I'm assuming the pins, when looking at the board with EULER and EXT at the bottom, are arranged thus :

2-4-6-8-10
1-3-5-7-9

Anyway - I've attached a Reset/Power switch (e.g. like from an ATX case) and pressing it in makes no difference...

All this messing around just to get the CONFOUNDING thing running on a battery, and NONE of the advice I've gotten from ANYONE has worked!  And all because you guys (Pine People) won't export / sell LiPo batteries for Pine!

Doing my head in!

Does this answer your questions about what each pin is for? :-P

I don't blame you for not finding it... it took me a while before I realised it was there at the bottom of the wiki page. Since then, any useful pine64 related info I come across I save into evernote and tag as such, so it can be easily found again.
