BBB has no power, board has
Any hint regarding that my BBB does not have power? also display is dead. I put 5V to the left screws only. I tried to hold power btn, but nothing happens. Thanks
The board needs to be powered at the bottom right to supply power to the BBB
But still, I dont have power on my BBB. Im using 5v DC, I can see green light on D6 diode, and I put 5A fuse on that spot. but BBB does not emitting any blue lamps.
its a different PCB but if you look at this PDF find the "Test Power" section and verify your voltages. I would do it with the BBB not connected until you know it right.

Thanks, now I have the power on my BBB! But still Icant access it over BBB's IP address. When I disconnect BBB and put it the same UTP cable and its own supply, then it works, I can found on that IP address. Do you maybe know why is that? thanks again
The OLED will not turn on until you flash the EEprom or set it up in FPP. You also have to solder the jumpers under the OLED to the correct pinout of your OLED
Thanks @computergeek1507 can you point me out with which firmware should I need to flash eeprom? I found it on fpp=> about=> flash But still it should be presenting fpp welcome screen even if connected to the board, but its not.
If running FPP 6 you should flash from the cape menu option. It needs to be the V2 version
I found this: https://github.com/computergeek1507/PB_16/blob/master/PB_16v2_SMD/PB16v2-220513130003-eeprom.bin Also I will first update fpp to to version 6
But I dont have anywhere upload filed option:
it was moved to Help->Cape Info in FPP 6, The file you found in the repo had an error, I uploaded a new one here:
