Hi oconnel:
Yes, the VIM2 designed with a onboard MCU to manage the power, and we develope KBI to do the configuration.
I’m not quite sure that your question is VIM2 or vTV:
Maker sure that you the vTV board need a independently power supply.
VIM2 already set as auto boot when plug-in the DC, if you device not, can you check again over the command below:
kvim2# kbi trigger dcin r
Thanks!
You can follow the documents below for the KBI details:
