4.2 Board Setup

Follow these steps before using the SAM9X75-Curiosity board:

1. Unpack the board, taking care to avoid electrostatic discharge.
2. Check the default jumper settings (see 2.5 Default Jumper Settings).
3. Connect the Micro-USB cable to connector J2 (USB-A port).
4. Connect the other end of the cable to a free port on your PC.
5. Connect a USB-UART converter to J35, making sure to also connect the VBUS_FTDI power source.
6. Open a terminal (console 115200, N, 8, 1) on your PC for the USB-UART converter.
7. Reset the board. A “ROMCode” startup message appears on the console.
