Booting as USB client connected to a computer/laptop
The OSD3358-SM-
RED platform can also be powered using a computer/laptop’s USB port. The
micro-USB to USB cable provided in the box can be used to connect the RED board to a
computer/laptop. Unlike the standalone mode, this setup does not require additional hardware.
The following steps describe the procedure to power the board as a USB slave and set up the
development environment.
1. Connect the micro-USB side of the USB cable to the micro-USB port X1
2. Connect the USB side to one of the USB ports on a laptop/computer.
