Also you must find a GND pad, I suggest you use the OTG pads due it's enought big for solder your wire.

Connect your (-) GND to this pad.

Now you can power the module using these (VCC, GND) pads.

Use The OTG as Host with the Module in Standalone.

The module has a 0 Ohms resistor for protect the 5VDC regulator that acts when you plug the OTG cable for act has HOST.

You must remove this resistor if you wish use the OTG as host in standalone, if you wish use a baseboard then you must install it again.

You must desolder the resistor R200 that it's in the red circle in the below image.

Final Result

You can power the board from your 5VDC prefered power supply and use it as OTG Host for your gadgets ... 

In this case I used a IGEP Module without WIFI/BT module and use it with a external WIFI dongle ...
