Hey Chris,
Sorry for such a delayed response, but yes you should be able to power the LattePanda from the 4pin input to save the USB C if you use a suitable power supply.
Hey Peter,
It appears that the connection may just be being caused by slightly different protocol on the connections and that the LattePanda isn’t faulty. If you wish to purse this further please leave us an email as support@coreelectronics and myself or another member of our team will see what we can do to resolve your issue.
Have a great day everyone!
