Connecting to the Target Board
Attach one end of the six-conductor ribbon cable to the Smart Cable six-pin DBG connec-
tor. See Figure 2. Attach the free end of the ribbon cable to the connector on the target
board. Ensure that pin 1 on the ribbon cable (indicated by the dark stripe) is aligned with
pin 1 on the target connector. For further information on connecting the USB Smart Cable

A half-twist in the ribbon cable between the ZiLOG-manufactured target
board and the opto-isolated USB Smart Cable is normal.
