Q: How to disable auto power on feature on X1200?
A: When you connect an external power supply, the UPS board will automatically power on the Pi 5 motherboard while it starts charging, this feature is called 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.
WARNING: 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. We no longer offer any warranty for this product.
- Once you remove this resistor, you can only turn on the power output by pressing the on-board switch.

Q: Why does the UPS shield continue to output power when PI 5 is turned off via press the on-board button?
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
Q: What battery is recommended for this ups shield
A: Please use high quality batteries from PANPASONIC, Toshiba, etc.
Do not use the battery with built-in protection circuit.
Q1: Run sudo i2cdetect -y 1, can't find I2C address 0x36?
A:
1. Make sure you enable i2c interface, refer to How to enable I2C
2. Please check if the pogp pin of X1202 is in close contact with the pad position of PI 5.
Q. What is the maximum capacity in mAh and current rating allowed for the batteries?
A: The battery capacity is generally less than 20000mAh, and the maximum charging current is 3A.
