BeagleBoard xM version C has now a DB-9 connector.

No need, unlike older versions, a DB9 to IDC10 serial adapter cable, but need a widely used FTDI based USB to serial adapter.

The settings of the PORT in your PC that is connected to the BeagleBoard should match the ones in the picture below :

1

Using by example PuTTY software…. but there is more, create a new connection with the settings below :

  • Baud: 115200
  • Hardware flow control: off
  • Data bits: 8
  • Stop bits: 1
  • Parity: none

.

Check that connection is established

Hit one time <key>enter</key>. You should now see the linux prompt of the single board computer, asking for an user name.
