IOT-LINK: Getting Started

Quick Setup

• Connect a USB cable between the host PC and IOT-LINK micro-USB console DBG connector (4). Verify that the serial port is visible on the host PC.
• On your host PC, start a terminal emulation program (such as Tera Term or PuTTy) with the following serial port settings:

Baud Rate	Data Bits	Stop Bits	Parity	Flow Control
115200	8	1	none	none

• Use the Compulab IOTL-ACC-PSUTB2 PSU, insert the power supply plug into the IOT-LINK DC input terminal block (8).
  • NOTE: In case another 12V-24V DC power source is being used: connect PSU wires to IOT-LINK DC input terminal block (8).
• Plug the power supply unit into an AC outlet. IOT-LINK will turn on and boot into Linux. Status Indicator (2) should blink blue.
• To log in into Debian Linux, use "compulab" as the username. There is no password. The device will ask to set the password for the "compulab" superuser on first login session.
