Does the IRXON device need to have a ground wire on the 9 Pin D-Sub given that the device itself has its own power (ie., battery) or it can be powered by a USB cable connected to a panel-mounted USB charger outlet which is already grounded?

Just checking as I'm planning to connect it to my Trig TC90 Head and wanted to know if I just needed an RX/TX data wire.

Dear Paul, 

I am not a specialist, but just received the IRXON BT578 v.3, and just tested it with the SkyD iOS app (Tx/Rx still not connected to the radio, though).

It worked perfectly with power from a USB-C charger, as per the product notice. So I assume a ground wire is not required for powering the IRXON. My understanding is that the data wire will be enough with my Trig, but cannot confirm this until actually testing - hopefully next month. 

Hope this helps !
