5.1 Setting Up the Hardware

Setting up the hardware involves interfacing the camera sensor module and the HDMI monitor with the PolarFire SoC video kit.

To set up the hardware, perform the following steps:

  1. Connect the camera sensor module at J10 on the video kit.
  2. Connect the HDMI monitor at J14 on the video kit using the HDMI cable.
  3. Ensure that the jumpers are set correctly on the video kit, as listed in the following table. For more information about the default jumper settings, see the "Jumper Settings" section in PolarFire SoC FPGA Video Kit User Guide.
