Step 3. Go to the Blue Tail Technologies web page https://bluetailtechnologies.com/pages/p25rx-wio-terminal-p25-demo-application Download the "CURRENT.UF2" file from the web page. You will be replacing (overwriting) the "CURRENT.UF2" that is now on your Wio (Arduino folder) with the "CURRENT.UF2"...

USB Host also supplies power to the connected USB devices. The P25RX is a USB Device. When a P25RX is connected to a computer, the computer (the USB Host) is in control. The computer also supplies the 5 Volt power to the P25RX.

As an end user, you can determine how you would like to supply the 5 volts to the GPIO pins. CAUTION: >> MAKE SURE YOU CONNECT NO MORE THAN VOLTS TO THE CORRECT GPIO PINS. << If you do NOT feel comfortable with DIY electronics see "Seeed Wio Terminal Chassis Battery (650 mAh) option"...

Like above, this is a USB screw terminal cable solution example. https://www.amazon.com/zdyCGTime-Connector-terminals-Pluggable- Cable%EF%BC%8830CM/dp/B07QQQZ1DV Solid copper wire - like "bell wire" - could be connected to the 5 volt and Ground screw terminals on the cable. The 5 volt solid copper wire connects to Pin 2 (or 4) on the WIO and the Ground solid copper wire connects to Pin 6 on the WIO.

The Wio Terminal 40 pin GPIO header as a 2.54 mm (0.1 inch) spacing between the holes. Wire to Board Terminal Block connectors with a pitch of 2.54 mm (0.1 inch) will insert directly into the GPIO header. Here are two examples that could be inserted into GPIO pins 4 and 6 for five volt power input: 2 Position Wire to Board Terminal Block Horizontal with Board 0.1"...

Powering the Seeed Chassis Battery for long periods of time through the USB C charging port may put the Lithium Polymer battery in a constant charging cycle with no discharge cycle. The battery will only provide about 45 minutes of run time to an original P25RX receiver The battery will...

Appendix A: Update Wio UF2 file Updating the Wio Terminal firmware is easy. Set the Wio Terminal to "bootloader" mode, as seen in Step 2 above. In bootloader mode, the Wio Terminal becomes a Mass Storage USB device (i.e. a flash drive). In Windows 10, look for a new external drive created called "Arduino".
