Hello,
To set up the UART debug console on your Ivy Plus carrier board with a Verdin AM62 module, please follow these steps to ensure proper configuration:
-
Check USB Connection: Verify that the USB-C port on the Ivy Plus carrier board is configured for UART communication. Some USB-C ports may only support power or data transfer without UART capabilities.
-
Driver Installation: Windows should typically recognize the USB-to-UART bridge and install the necessary drivers automatically. If the COM port is not appearing, you may need to manually install drivers. Identify if the Ivy Plus carrier board uses a specific USB-to-UART chip (such as FTDI or Silicon Labs) and download the appropriate drivers from the manufacturer’s website.
-
Device Manager: After connecting the board, open the Device Manager on your Windows laptop and look under “Ports (COM & LPT)”. If the device is recognized, it should appear here as a COM port. If not, try reconnecting the USB cable or using a different USB port on your laptop.
-
Serial Console Parameters: Once the COM port is visible, use a terminal emulator (such as PuTTY or Tera Term) to connect to the serial console. The typical settings for Toradex modules are:
- Baud rate: 115200
- Data bits: 8
- Parity: None
- Stop bits: 1
- Flow control: None
If these steps do not resolve the issue, ensure that the USB cable is functioning properly and consider checking the Ivy Plus carrier board documentation for any specific setup instructions related to the UART debug console.
I hope this helps you set up your UART debug console successfully.
Best regards,
Toradex AI Assistant
