'''Under construction'''Connect an USB hub to the USB Host and plug your keyboard and mouse into the hub.
'''Before booting, unmount J101 jumper to boot from microSD card. With all the peripherals attached, plug in the wall adapter (5V DC) and power on your board. You will see a few lights flash, see how to IGEP COM AQUILA red led light up and after a few seconds may light up a fixed green led too. The sequence will be different based on software version. "Under construction'''the hood" the bootloader is preparing to load the linux kernel. The linux kernel loads and initializes the hardware and mounts the root file system. Finally, you will see a screen desktop like the following screenshot. The firmware in its microSD card consists of a minimal Linux-based distribution with a lite X Window System and GNOME Mobile based applications created with Poky Platform Builder.
'''<Yocto non X splash image>'''You can use the mouse and the keyboard to dive into the desktop. {| cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1" width="200" border="1" align="center"|-| [[Image:Igep0033 login screen.JPG|600px]]|}
PuTTY is an SSH and telnet client, developed originally by Simon Tatham for the Windows platform. PuTTY is open source software that is available with source code and is developed and supported by a group of volunteers. You can download it from: www.putty.org=== Setting up connection ===
=== Setting up connection ===Open the serial on your PC using your preferred serial communications program (minicom) and configure the port as follows: * 115200* 8N1* no flow control (either software or hardware) Open the serial port and the debug shell prompt should appear.
*Open PuTTy.*Choose Serial line. If you are running PuTTy A detailed guide on Windows, the USB Serial converter line will be like (COM1 or COM2 or COM3, etc.). If you are running PuTTy on Ubuntu, the USB Serial converter line will how to connect via serial debug port can be like (/dev/ttyUSB0 or /dev/ttyUSB1 or /dev/ttyUSB3, etc.).*Configure Speed found by following this link: [[Using serial debug port to 115200*Select Serial Connection type*Press on Open button communicate]]

In this tutorial we are going to use the following peripherals:
* IGEP COM AQUILAwith an uSD card
* IGEP AQUILA EXPANSION with its power supply
* FTDI cable* Monitor compatible with HDMIwith audio.
* HDMI cable
* Powered USB HUB 2.0

== Create IGEP Firmware bootable SD-card ==
IGEP COM AQUILA internal memory is not flashed by default, you will need a bootable SD-card to bootup your board.
If you don't have a bootable SD-card, download [https://www.isee.biz/support/downloads/item/igep-firmware-yocto-1-4-2-0-am335x the IGEP Firmare Yocto for AM335x] and follow the README file.
== Connect IGEP AQUILA Expansion with IGEP COM AQUILA Board ==
The IGEP AQUILA Expansion connects to the IGEP COM AQUILA Board through K1 connector and J800 connector (optionally). <br> <br>

== Monitor ==
The board will connect to your HDMI monitor. You can use a HDMI cable to connect the board to the monitor. Your monitor should be able to support 720p1024 x 768 @ 60 Hz, which is the default resolution used by the firmware.
== Network ==
You may now plug the Ethernet cable into the 10/100 Ethernet jack of the board to get network access. The default firmware configures the Ethernet device with static IP address (192.168.5.1) and dynamic IP address (via DHCP protocol).
== Keyboard/Mouse ==
== Booting ==
== Remote connection via Serial interface ==
=== Overview ===
Serial header (J803) lets you debug system using Kernel debug using with an USB to 3V3 TTL level serial like TTL-232R-3V3 converter from [http://www.ftdichip.com/Products/Cables/USBTTLSerial.htm FTDI] or compatible reference. The TTL-232R-3V3 converter has 6 pins and IGEP AQUILA EXPANSION add a 7th way (3v3 power). The next image shows how to connect it: <br><br>
