Serial Communications
•
EVB2 has an FTDI chip to convert UART
signals to USB friendly format, to be
connected to host PC
•
UART 0 (with arrow) is default serial output
for Linux BSP boot images.
•
Default comms rate is 115200 baud with 8
data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity.
•
Use a program such as puTTy, TeraTerm or
Minicom on host PC to communicate with
board
•
Lack of serial output on boot can indicate
corrupt (or missing) boot medium, or
improper baud rate. Activity LED is present
near each USB port to indicate serial
communication
