To set up the network login data, edit file located in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf and update ssid and passphrase psk fields.
root@imx93-voipac:~# cat /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
update_config=1
network={
ssid="SSID_FOR_WIFI_NETWORK"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk="WIFI_NETWORK_PASSWORD"
}
To connect to the desired WiFi network, start wpa_supplicant:
root@imx93-voipac:~# wpa_supplicant -D nl80211 -i mlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf & root@imx93-voipac:~# rfkill: Cannot open RFKILL control device [ 261.722718] wlan: mlan0 START SCAN [ 266.018892] wlan: SCAN COMPLETED: scanned AP count=1 mlan0: SME: Trying to authentica[ 266.027303] wlan: HostMlme mlan0 send auth to bssid 40:XX:XX:XX:70:62 te with 40:a5:ef:c0:70:62 (SSID='WifiPoschodie' f[ 266.037546] mlan0: req=2437 MHz) [ 266.037558] wlan: HostMlme Auth received from 40:XX:XX:XX:70:62 mlan0: Trying to associate with 40:a5:ef:c0:70:62 (SSID='WifiPoschodie' freq=2437 MHz) [ 266.057956] wlan: HostMlme mlan0 Connected to bssid 40:XX:XX:XX:70:62 successfully mlan0: Associated[ 266.067323] mlan0: with 40:a5:ef:c0[ 266.067340] wlan: Send EAPOL pkt to 40:XX:XX:XX:70:62
To obtain an IP address and other network settings, run dhcp client:
udhcpc -i mlan0
At this point the bandwidth measurement can be tested, showing that WiFi connection was established and is performed very reliably.

USB-C
This connector is primarily used for flashing new binaries into the iMX93 Industrial Module. More information can be found on the dedicated module flashing page.
USB Micro-B serial console
Input: Connect USB console cable into the base board connector and open serial console with baud rate 115200 8n1
Output: The board is controlled and responsive to serial terminal commands
root@imx93-voipac:~# uname -a Linux imx93-voipac 6.6.36-lts-next-g2e3e2e65d92a #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Sep 4 08:22:45 UTC 2024 aarch64 GNU/Linux
UART serial console
Serial console is utilized via USB Micro-B connector by default. Alternatively, the communication can be established using UART headers and TTL-232R-3V3 - FTDI cable.
NOTE:Describe jumpers position
Note:Usage of UART2 CONSOLE to communicate by default requires changes in Yocto binaries and new compilation of image files.
SD card
NOTE: Perform detection of SDcard
