The circuit is a voltage regulating circuit the voltage regulator does two things: it regulates output voltage to 5V and makes one positive input into two different positive inputs, One of them is a 12V constant power supply and the other is a 5V constant power supply, So it is able to have a 12V power supply but then regulate this down to give a 5V output for our aux. which requires 5V.
I found that this circuit board was harder then the first due to not completely understanding the components throughout it, once i worked out the resistors to use using the website, things went alot easier and ended up with a final result of a 5.17V output after tweaking a few things as my first test read 5.45V...to get it down to the 5.17V i had to change a resistor from a 220ohm to a 270ohm this is what got me into the le-way of 5V-5.19V.
If i was to remake this circuit board again I would make it more compact and tidy so that wires and components weren't crossing each other as this can cause shorting etc....

Hi Chris you should have volt drop readings with explanations on what these readings mean, also you were asked for a test procedure.
