UARTs
Four UARTs are implemented with PL011 PrimeCells incorporated into
the baseboard FPGA. See
UART
on page 4-37
.
User Switches and LEDs
You can access the two physical user switches, SW[1] and SW[2], and
eight user LEDs on the motherboard from your applications.
•
SW[1] is normally used to run the Boot Monitor boot script.
•
SW[2] is a hardware enable switch for remote UART0 control.
SW[2] is not normally used by your application. See the

.
The two physical user switches and eight user LEDs can assist you to
debug applications by setting application options or displaying status
information. See
User Switch Register

Watchdog
The ARM SP805 Watchdog module can apply a reset to a system in the
event of a software failure. See
Watchdog
