Adding SCAB to 635

[Madness]

I want to add the SCAB to my 635. Do any mods have to made to the display itself? I was just going to mount it on its place on the back of the drivebay bracket.

It should just plug in with no modifications. Well, turn the power off first

Oh OK, I thought I read somewhere on here about requiring some jumpers to be set.

Usually you only need to set jumpers if you want to adjust where the LCD gets it's +5v from. Either the SCAB's power connector, or the USB's +5v supply

Been away for a bit. But, yes, I'd like to get power from the SCAB so the display turns on as soon as the computer does. Will I be able to set these, easily?

Yes, just open JP2 on the LCD (so the "early power" canot "back feed" the USB circuit).
