    - First Steps INTRODUCTION The Starter Kit eSOM/SK2 contains everything you need to get started with your embedded networking application. The Starter Kit includes an eSOM/9263 module with a pre-installed U-Boot boot loader and an embedded Linux, the Evaluation Board BB6/eSOM, power sup- ply, serial interface (null modem) cable, a CD-ROM with software and documentation and a printed user manual for the first steps with the Starter Kit.
  • Page 4: Features And Technical Data

    - First Steps Features and Technical Data The eSOM/SK2 comes with a pre-installed U-Boot boot loader and an Embedded Linux op- erating system. The eSOM/9263 Linux consists of two main components: 1. the Linux ker- nel and 2. the root file system.
  • Page 5: Getting Started

    - First Steps GETTING STARTED Serial Link between BB6/eSOM and PC Setup the serial link between the Evaluation Board BB6/eSOM and your PC. Use a null mo- dem cable for this connection. Figure 1: Serial link between BB6/eSOM and PC Connect one end of the null modem cable with an unused COM port of your PC.
  • Page 6: Ethernet Link Between Bb6/Esom And Pc

    - First Steps Ethernet Link between BB6/eSOM and PC Setup the Ethernet LAN link between the Evaluation Board BB6/eSOM and your PC. Use an Ethernet cross-over cable or a switch-based infrastructure for the LAN connection. Figure 2: Ethernet link between BB6/eSOM and PC Please note: The eSOM/9263 comes with the default IP address 192.168.0.126.

    - First Steps Connecting Power Supply and Power-up the Starter Kit Connect the 12 VDC power supply with the barrel plug with the Evaluation Board BB6/eSOM. Please note: Make sure that all cable connections are OK. Then power-up the Starter Kit.
  • Page 8: Using Serial Link With Terminal Program

    - First Steps Using Serial Link with Terminal Program Run HyperTerminal on your Windows-PC, minicom or a similar simple terminal emulation program on your Linux-based PC. Figure 5: Direct connection setup with HyperTerminal Setup a direct connection with the parameters of table 2. Make sure, that the PC COM port supports 115.200 bps.
  • Page 9: Power-Up Esom/9263 With Rcm Disabled

    - First Steps Power-up eSOM/9263 with RCM disabled After power-up the eSOM/9263 starts an automatic boot process from the on-board flash memory chip. This process consists of two steps: 1. Directly after power-up, the eSOM/9263 runs the U-Boot boot loader program for some milliseconds.
  • Page 10: Power-Up Esom/9263 With Rcm Enabled

    - First Steps Power-up eSOM/9263 with RCM enabled The eSOM/9263 boot sequence with RCM enabled is similar to the boot procedure with RCM disabled. Only the first step is different: 1. The eSOM/9263 runs the U-Boot boot loader program. This software shows a wait message over the eSOM/9263 COM1 serial interface if RCM is enabled (please see the eSOM/9263 hardware reference manual for details).
