Basic Setup
The following steps outline the procedure for setting up a typical development system. The EPM-
15 should be handled at an ESD workstation or while wearing a grounded antistatic wrist strap.
Before you begin, unpack the EPM-15 and accessories. Verify that you received all the items you
ordered. Inspect the system visually for any damaged that may have occurred in shipping.
Contact Support@VersaLogic.com immediately if any items are damaged or missing.
Gather all the peripheral devices you plan to attach to the EPM-15 and their interface and power
cables.
It is recommended that you attach standoffs to the board (see Hardware Assembly) to stabilize the
board and m
ake it easier to work with.
Figure 3 shows a typical start-up configuration (using RoHS compatible cables).
