 = Overview = This is the 1/3 chapter of the Getting Started with IGEPv2 Tutorial Guide. In this first chapter, we will learn : * Connect some preripherals, including monitor and USB peripherals.* Boot the board and touring the default firmware.* Connect remotely to the board via ethernet. Upon completion, you will be ready to continue with chapter 2/3 that explains more advanced tasks. '''A REMINDER TO UPDATE the PRE-INSTALLED SOFTWARE IMAGE to a CURRENT RELEASE''' We highly recommended that you update your software image to a recent release to ensure you have the latest features and bug fixes. Please see the article on [[IGEP_firmware_Yocto | IGEP YOCTO Firmware]] = Requirements = 
In this tutorial we are going to use the following peripherals:
* IGEPv2 with its power supply
* Monitor compatible with DVI-D
* HDMI/DVI-D cable.* Network cable.* Powered USB HUB 2.0.
* USB keyboard and a mouse
* PC
= Getting started =The following video illustrates the getting started process. You will see how to connect some peripherals and power up the board.

==Monitor==
The board will connect to your DVI monitor via its HDMI connector. You can use a HDMI/DVI-D cable to connect the board to the monitor. Your monitor should be able to support 1024 x 768 @ 60 Hz, which is the default resolution used by the firmware.
 == Monitor == The board will connect to your DVI monitor via its HDMI connector. You can use a HDMI/DVI-D cable to connect the board to the monitor. Your monitor should be able to support 1024 x 768 @ 60 Hz, wich is the default resolution used by the firmware. If your monitor doesn't have an a DVI-D input, you can also use a HDMI input using a HDMI/HDMI cable, in that case you should [[How_do_I_edit_my_kernel_command_line | edit the kernel cmdline parameters]] and replace :
omapfb.mode=dvi:1280x720MR-16@60
for this one:
omapfb.mode=dvi:hd720-16@60
== 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).
You may now plug the Ethernet cable into the 10==Keyboard/100 Ethernet jack Mouse==The USB Host of the board to get network access. The default firmware configures the ethernet device with static ip address is ONLY USB High speed (192480Mbit/s).168You will need a powered USB hub 2.50 to connect to most USB devices.1),
== Now, connect an USB devices (hub to the USB Host and plug your keyboard and mouse) ==into the hub.
''' Basic '''==Booting==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 red leds light up and after a few seconds may light up only a fixed green led. The sequence will be different based on software version.
Connect an USB hub "Under 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 USB type-A connector (USB Host) in IGEPv2following screenshot.
Then plug an USB keyboard The pre-installed firmware in its flash memory consists of a minimal Linux-based distribution with a lite X Window System and USB mouse to the USB hubGNOME Mobile based applications created with Poky Platform Builder.
You can use the mouse and the keyboard to dive into the desktop.
