Initial Setup

To begin, mount the SOM-SMARC-Genio700 or SOM-SMARC-Genio510 Module into the B79 Baseboard, insert the battery into the battery socket, and connect the LVDS cable to the Display and CN14 of the Baseboard. Then, connect the power cable to the baseboard and set up the USB Touchscreen connection. The OS is stored on the µSD card, which should be placed in CN77. If notAt the moment the modules only support boot from eMMC. If the module is not pre-flashed, a list of available images for download can be found in the Software section.

The Eval-kit Kit comes with a power supply including an adapter designed for this evaluation system.

You can now proceed to power up the system.

Serial Connection

Connect the baseboard to a computer using the USB-A to micro-USB cableserial cable to CN25 via the CV-904/20REVB adapter (connector without a white band).
Ensure you have the Tera Term application to communicate with the device.
In Tera Term, configure the serial connection in Setup-> Serial Port with the following settings:
- Port: serial port connected to the device
- Speed: 115200
- Data: 8bit
- Parity: none
- Stop bits: 1
Plug in the power connector, allowing the device to boot up. If the settings are correct and the right port is selected, you should see the terminal output.
