As you will note, SD cards, eMMC cards, PCIe, and onboard GbE ports are not supported.
USB devices
IMPORTANT: USB device can consume significant power and thus put a stress on the Quartz64's power circuits. Some USB devices could consume so
much power (e.g. NVMe enclosure) that the system will simply not work, be unstable or have unstable USB behavior. For anything short of a basic USB
key and NIC, use a powered USB3 hub.
Note: The system has four USB ports. The white USB2 ports (closest to the middle of the board) are not reliable with the Fling. For best results, use the
black USB2 port and/or the blue USB3 port.
Preparation
Serial console access
Connect the USB TTL cable to the GND (pin 6 or 9), UART2_TX_M0_DEBUG (pin 8), and UART2_RX_M0_DEBUG (pin 10) pins on the board's Pi-2-BUS
header.
Fire up your terminal emulator and connect to the device on your PC. The parameters used to open this port:
Baud Rate 115200
Data Bits 8
Parity None
Stop Bits 1
Flow Control None
'screen' terminal emulator
Note: device names below may be different. Check your system.
On Linux:
$ screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200
'minicom' terminal emulator
Note: device names below may be different. Check your system.
With
, you will have to configure settings the first time you use it.
minicom
On Linux:
$ minicom -c on -D /dev/ttyUSB0
