I dont have one, so no idea. One advise though-Invest in 30V or higher dc supply with 10Amps.That'll help in detecting short in SOC mb where you cant go up then 1V.

Thats it-your dc supply is 5A. Invest in 10Amps dc supply so that u can inject more current to find short specially on SOC architecture.
