How-To connect your Armadeus board to your development Host.

Forewords

The default connection uses a simple RS232 Null-Modem cable (with or without USB<->serial adapter).
If you want to transfer data in a faster way, the Ethernet link is recommended.

Connection Setup

A Terminal emulator (for RS232 link) and a TFTP server (for Ethernet link) have to be configured, depending on your Host operating system:

U-Boot communication quick check

  • Verify that your RS232 cable is correctly connected
  • The bootstrap jumper must be removed
  • Start the RS232 terminal on the Host side (115200 bauds 8N1)
  • Reset the board
  • U-Boot must start

Here is a screenshot of what you will see on your Terminal emulator during the Linux boot.
