= Overview == Setting up ===---- In the first chapter of this tutorial we are going to use: * an USB A type plug to mini B type plug* a computer with Windows or Linux installed on it Do NOT power up your board yet.  {| cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" border="1" align="center" width="100%" style="text-align: left;"|-| bgcolor="#cccccc" |'''Power up via USB OTG connector'''|-|'''Connect IGEP0030 to a computer via USB OTG'''|-|} The on-board '''HS USB OTG port''' is used as the default '''power input for IGEP0030 standalone''' operating mode. First of all, connect IGEP0030 to your machine via the on-board USB OTG port with '''a USB cable''' (USB A type plug to mini B type plug).
'''Important note''' - Please read these documents before continuing with this article: <br> Connect IGEP0030 to your machine. It will power up.

<br>You can log into IGEP0030 via many '''interfaces with network connectivity''', such wifi, usb-ethernet gadget.. and many others (when connected to an IGEP Expansion Board). In this tutorial we are going to '''connect via USB Ethernet gadget'''. This feature allows you to have an IP connection over USB.  IGEP0030 uses this functionality to allow users to log via SSH.
= Adding peripherals =You can use this feature to interact with the IGEP Processor operating system [host] by typing commands in a client machine (your PC, for example) to perform specific tasks in IGEP0030. You can communicate and open a debug session via many other interfaces such Serial port, Ethernet, Wifi, USB Ethernet Gadget, etc. (if available in an IGEP Expansion Board, for example).
=== USB OTG Therefore, you will be able to access IGEP0030 ===from your client device (for example, a PC with Linux, Windows, etc.)
The on-board HS USB OTG port is used as the default power input for IGEP0030 standalone operating mode. We can power up the IGEP0030 via the on-board USB OTG port, and we only need to use a USB cable (USB A type plug to mini B type plug) between the IGEP0030 board and your host machine.
To allow that, IGEP0030 comes with an USB interface static IP: 192.168.7.2''Note: You will be able to change it later'' Now you must run any serial console that allows SSH such PuTTy (Linux, Windows). You can download it from its official page at: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html Then, run the '''SSH client''' and start a SSH session to connect to the host (IGEP0030) from the client (your PC): [[Image:Putty ssh.png|center]]  # Select the '''SSH''' at connection type.# Next insert the '''IP address of the target'''. In this case, the IGEP0030 default IP (192.168.7.2).# Ensure that the port is set to '''22''', the default for SSH communications.# Finally, push the '''Open button''' to start the SSH session.  If everything goes right, you will be able to access to an IGEP0030 console from your PC via USB Ethernet gadget.  = Booting up == Connect to IGEP0030 via Wifi ===---- {| cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" border="1" align="center" width="100%" style="text-align: left;"|-| bgcolor="#cccccc" |'''Overview'''|-| 1) '''Install a SSH client such PuTTy''' 2) '''Connect via wireless connection''', ESSID: WLAN_IGEP, SSH: root@192.168.6.1|} (Work in progress article. Coming soon!)
Once the board is powered up and running, we will get Ethernet connectivity over the same USB cable (USB Ethernet Gadget/RNDIS driver) or via wireless.

 ---- === The next step is: [[What can I do with IGEP0030]] ===  This guide is divided in three different chapters: * '''Getting started''': A basic tutorial about how to connect and boot your IGEP0030* '''What can I do?''': An extensive article to setup the main peripherals of IGEP0030* '''Start developing''': Once you have successfully followed the previous tutorials, you are ready to start developing with IGEP Technology. Here you will find some basic tips tricks about how to start with it. For further information about this board, there exist other sections where you can find specific and extended contents, in-depth description, valuables web links, etc. If that is your case, visit the '''[[:Category:IGEP0030|main page of IGEP0030]]''' or check the categories at the IGEP Community Wiki.
