The basic kits have been upgraded to the latest board, the OpenEVSE v4. It is compatible with all kit versions. A diagram is located here:

I see the diagram; thanks. Questions remain:
* the build guide says "connect pilot to board." But where: I assume to the iec cp terminal, and not the "europe" terminal. But for $187.25 I hate to assume...
* I can find nowhere the orientation of the 4-pin GFCI plug. Orange to outside, or orange to power block?
* Is there significance to the "H" and "N" on the AC Line and AC Test connector blocks?

*Correct- The pilot wire connects to the terminal in the diagram labeled "Pilot - IEC CP"
*Orange is to the inside, black to the outside.
*Not really H is for Hot and N is Neutral (or Hot 2). They are the exact same test circuit so it really does not matter.

My 2nd input of the day. I just discovered that the PCB I have is not that in assembly guide (for Basic kit). My PCB has 3, 8-pin DIP ICs on top. In addition, mounting holes wrong spacing. I can drill new holes in baseplate, but how do I know the board is compatible? Photo is attached. Silkscreen is hidden under the 2, 3-connector jacks closest to power converter: how do I find connection diagram?
