Below are the steps to bring up the EVM board in a typical system:
1. Remove the power plug from the PC power supply.
2. Make sure the Jumper Shunts are populated on J26 and J40.
3. Insert the EVM board into a PCI Express slot. It is recommended to use a PCI Express Gen2 slot if
one is available.
4. Insert an IDE Power Connector into J5 of the EVM board.
5. Insert the power plug into the PC power supply.
6. Turn the PC on. Once the PC is turned on, all of the green LEDs should be ON. If LED D5 is not
active, please check to make sure the jumper shunt on J40 is populated. If none of the green LEDs
(D1 thru D4) for each USB Port are active, please check to make sure the Jumper Shunt on J26 is
populated and an IDE Power connector is plugged into J5.
7. Once the PC has booted into Windows 7, you will need to install the TI xHCI driver. If the driver has
already been installed on your PC, then you can proceed step 8. Otherwise, you will need to install the
xHCI driver by running the TI xHCI driver setup utility.
8. You can now insert devices into the USB ports.
