Connect Developer Kit to the Linux Host Computer

Prepare your Jetson AGX Xavier Developer Kit for setup as follows. For "headless"
setup, skip the first step.
Connect a display, keyboard, and mouse to the developer kit (see

Configuration Instructions, above).
Use the included USB cable to connect the Linux host computer to the front USB

Type-C connector on the developer kit.
During setup, SDK Manager will provide your developer kit with an Internet
connection via this USB connection.
Connect the included AC adapter to the developer kit's DC jack and plug it in to a

source of AC power.

Put Developer Kit into Force Recovery Mode

The developer kit must be in Force Recovery Mode (RCM) to enable the installer to
transfer system software to the Jetson module.
1. Connect the developer kit as described above. It must be powered off.
2. Press and hold down the Force Recovery button.
3. Press and hold down the Power button.
4. Release both buttons.

Run SDK Manager

NVIDIA SDK Manager enables installation of software to the Jetson module and/or your
Linux host computer. For full instructions, see the
Note: After the Jetson module is flashed with the OS, it reboots and prompts you
for initial configuration information like keyboard layout, username and
password, etc.
If no display is attached to the developer kit during this first boot, the initial
configuration is "headless." That is, you must communicate with the
developer kit through a serial application on the host computer (e.g., puTTY)
connected via a host serial port and the developer kit's Micro-USB port.
