Wifly plugged into Xbee socket should power up?

Hardware: mbed LPC1768 mbed application board Wifly RN-XV RN171 External power source 7.5V plugged into application board jack. RN-XV plugged into Xbee socket. I have updated the RN-XV firmware as per http://www.RescueRobot.org/drupal/content/best-wifi-wifly LEDs on RN-XV dead except for tiny red. Have I missed something?

I have disconnected the power jack, moved the USB cable from the mbed pcb to the USB socket under/by the xbee socket on the Application Board and also connected a wire from Vin on the mbed pcb to pin 1 on the Wifly (RN-XV). It now works 100%. Is there anything wrong with the power circuits?
