Hi all,
I just received a spyverter R2. Problem is all the images I can find on the internet show the USB port on the right and label the right side as the output, but the spyverter I received has the USB port on the LEFT.

I don't want to feed voltage into the wrong side. How do I figure out which side is which (in vs out).

Thanks in advance

If you are using power on the coax then it goes in at the same side as the micro-usb socket. ie. antenna connects to the sma opposite end.

Remove the screws and flip the board around inside and it will match the pictures you've seen. Apparently the quality control doesn't take into account the board will fit in the case in either direction.

The side that requires power is offset with the micro-USB socket so remains obvious regardless.

(I suspect they actually put the website one in the 'opposite' way to suit the page layout)
