2 USAGE UNDER WINDOWS

2.1 Device Connection

When evaluating and developing X4 under windows, you need to interconnect X4 and
PC. The specific process is as follows:
Connect the adapter board with X4 first, then connect the USB cable to the USB port of
the adapter board and the PC. Note that the Type-C interface of the USB cable is
connected to the USB_DATA of the USB adapter board, and the idle mode is used after X4
is powered on. The motor does not rotate.
The drive current of USB interface of some development platforms or PC is not
sufficient. X4 need to be connected to the auxiliary power supply of +5V, otherwise the lidar
will be abnormal.
