|1) '''Connect a DVI Monitor'''
|5) '''Connect network cable'''
|-
|6) '''Power up IGEP0020 IGEPv2 (5V DC)'''
|}
| bgcolor="#cccccc" |'''Monitor'''
|-
|IGEP0020 IGEPv2 has a '''DVI-D interface''' where you can connect a '''HDMI connector to a monitor'''.You will need a cable with '''male DVI-D connector''' for the monitor, and '''male HDMI connector''' from IGEP0020IGEPv2.
|}
| bgcolor="#cccccc" |'''Serial'''
|-
|Connect an '''AT/Everex Cable''' to the '''10-pin serial header''' on IGEP0020 IGEPv2 and a '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_modem null modem] DB9 male-male''' serial cable between the board and your host machine.
|}
Furthermore, if you connect an external device to the serial port you will be able to see the '''Linux Kernel traces''', as the system boots.
Therefore, you will be able to access IGEP0020 IGEPv2 with a '''serial console''' from your client device (for example, a PC with Linux, Windows, etc.)

To communicate with IGEP0020 IGEPv2 via Serial port you have to '''connect your client machine to the serial debug port''' in your IGEP0020 IGEPv2 (host).
Once you have set the cable, then you have to run a serial console, or any program that can interact with the serial port in your host machine, such Minicom, PuTTy (Linux, Windows), Terminal (Windows), etc.
| bgcolor="#cccccc" |'''Audio'''
|-
|Connect an '''external output audio device''' to the 3.5mm jack Audio Out connector in IGEP0020IGEPv2, such as external stereo powered speakers.
|}
| bgcolor="#cccccc" |'''Keyboard & Mouse'''
|-
| In IGEP0020 IGEPv2 you might need a powered hub to connect to most USB.Connect an '''USB hub to the USB host connector''' in your IGEP0020IGEPv2, and then plug your keyboard and mouse into the USB hub.
|}
'''Only USB 2.0 devices will work''' in IGEP0020IGEPv2, so if you connect any USB mouse 1.0 into the USB host connector without using a USB hub 2.0, it will not work.
| bgcolor="#cccccc" |'''Network'''
|-
| Plug an '''Ethernet cable''' between IGEP0020 IGEPv2 and your client machine (or any other network device with ethernet connectivity).
|}
IGEP0020 IGEPv2 comes with one 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet ports.
In the following chapters we will use ethernet to access IGEP0020 IGEPv2 with IP configuration, send files, etc.
| bgcolor="#cccccc" |'''Power up'''
|-
| Once you have connected the peripherals '''you can apply power''' to your IGEP0020 IGEPv2 (5V DCC).
|}
* '''Serial''': If you have connected the '''serial debug port''', you will see the system traces as the board is starting up. Finally you will see the boot prompt asking for login. (read the next chapter of this tutorial)
* '''LED's''': You will also see a few LED's flash in IGEP0020 IGEPv2 during the system boot(the sequence will be different based on software version).
* '''Monitor''': Finally, if you connected the DVI-D signal (with HDMI connector) to a monitor, the desktop of the preinstalled software will appear on the screen and you will be able to use the mouse and the keyboard, if connected.
