This page guides though the first steps of controlling and operating the development kit. To prepare the working setup connect and plug in cables first.

Controlling the Development Kit over Serial Line

Recommended HW:

  • PC with USB port
  • Voipac iMX8M Industrial Development Kit
  • Micro USB Cable: iMX Baseboard USB Micro-B Console (Default)
  • TTL-232R-3V3-FTDI: iMX Baseboard UART1 Serial Console (Optional)

Recommended SW:

Serial line terminal (PUTTY, Minicom, Ckermit, Hyperterminal, TeraTerm, ...)

Default serial port settings:

  • Speed (baud): 115200
  • Data bits: 8
  • Stop bits: 1
  • Parity: None
  • Flow control: None

Controlling the development kit using TeraTerm and PuTTY:

NOTE: If you use the UART1 Console cable, it is necessary to switch the UART1 and UART 2 jumpers to the UART-CPU position as shown in the picture below.

Using External Monitor and USB Keyboard

Recommended HW:

  • External monitor with HDMI connector (HDMI to VGA adapter is required for VGA monitor)
  • Voipac iMX8M Industrial Development Kit
  • HDMI Cable
  • USB keyboard and USB mouse

Controlling the development kit using external monitor and USB keyboard:

Controlling the Development Kit over Ethernet

Recommended HW:

  • PC with Ethernet
  • Voipac iMX8M Industrial Development Kit
  • Ethernet Cable

Recommended SW:

  • SFTP client (Filezilla, PUTTY, WinSCP, …)
  • Telnet client (Telnet, PUTTY, …)
  • SSH client (SSH,PUTTY, …)
  • FTP client (FTP, Filezilla, BareFTP, …)

Important notes:

iMX8M Industrial Development Kit is shipped with empty password. The default login is: "root"

The default IP address is dynamic and setup by your DHCP server upon boot.

SSH, SFTP services require root password to be set up (“passwd” command)

FTP, SFTP are recommended only for data transfers (binary mode is recommended)

Controlling the development kit using WinSCP:
