New board, no serial communication #31

Open fairchdm opened 4 years ago

fairchdm commented 4 years ago

I am new to the KSZ9477 and SAMA5D36. While reviewing some of the literature it said it would be possible to connect the MPU with a serial cable. When I connected the cable and booted the KSZ9477 I was only able to see garbage text.
Do I have to load the Linux software first?
From the literature I was under the impression the Linux software was pre-loaded.
Thanks for your help.
Regards, Dennis

The baud rate is 115200.

Thanks, that got it. I had set the baud before, but didn't get comms. Tried a few other things, switched the RX/TX wires on my serial link but forgot to go back to 115200.
