Connect and configure the hardware
Before you transfer your BSP to your board, connect the board and peripherals.
Connect the hardware
You will require a CP210x USB to UART Bridge serial device driver on your host
development machine in order to establish a terminal session with the target over
USB. For more information, see Required Software
in the Before You Begin
chapter of this guide.
When you have the driver installed on your host, you should be able to connect to your board. To connect to your board:
Connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable between the Xilinx Zynq KD240's Ethernet port and your local network.
Connect the power supply to the Xilinx Zynq KD240’s power connector.
- Connect the USB cable (included with the board) between the board's Micro-USB UART/JTAG connector (J4 on the KD240) and your host machine.
On your host machine, determine the port name of the USB port used for serial communications with the Xilinx Zynq KD240 board, and start your favorite terminal program with these settings:
- Baudrate: 115200
- Data: 8 bit
- Parity:none
- Stop: 1 bit
- Flow control: none
