ZEUS Embedded Linux Development Kit Quickstart Unpacking and connecting up

8 AEL Embedded Linux on the ZEUS uses /dev/ttyS0 (COM1) as the console.

Connect the supplied null-modem cable between J11 on the ZEUS ((left hand D-

sub9 connector as you view the front edge) and your host PC, which should be

running a terminal emulator.

9 Configure the HOST serial terminal as follows:

• 115200 bit/s.

• No parity.

• 8 data bits.

• No flow control.

10 Switch on the ZEUS board once the terminal emulator is set up on the host PC.

The Linux operating system is loaded from the on-board Flash array and the board

displays the Linux login prompt. Linux will be fully operational after approximately

30 seconds.
