Boot Switch Setting
Make sure On-Board Switch (SW1) is set properly as shown below image
Debug Port Setting
Connect Type-A end of USB cable to PC and Micro-B end of USB cable to Development platform’s debug Micro USB connector (J13) as shown below.
Powering ON
Connect the Power supply plug to the Power connector (J10) of the Development platform as shown below and switch ON the power supply. Once power is applied to the Development platform, the power LED in the Development platform will glow as shown in the below image.
Warning:
- Do not try to connect any other Power Supply other than supplied along with Agilex 7 SoC FPGA (R24C) SOM Development Platform.
- Do not plug or remove Agilex 7 SoC FPGA (R24C) SOM from carrier board with live power.
- Contact iWave, if power LEDs are not glowing.
