DE10-Nano Getting Started Guide July 25, 2017 3 www.terasic.com.tw Chapter 2 Development Board Setup 2.1 Introduction The instructions in this section explain how to set up the DE10-Nano development board. The following pictures are the board overview of DE10-Nano. 2.2 MSEL Settings FPPx32 Mode (Default) The FPGA Configuration Mode Switch (MSEL) shown in Figure 2-1 is by default set to 01010 (MSEL[4:0] = 01010). The setting corresponds to FPGA configured from HPS software (in the SD Card) in FPPx32 mode. If users want to boot with Linux Xfce desktop, please setting MSEL switch in this mode Figure 2-1 FPGA Configuration Mode Switch set in FPPx32 Mode DE10-Nano Getting Started Guide July 25, 2017 4 www.terasic.com.tw AS Mode When the board is powered on and MSEL[4:0] set to “10010” (See Figure 2-2), the FPGA is configured from EPCS. Figure 2-2 FPGA Configuration Mode Switch set in AS Mode 2.3 USB , HDMI Output and Power Cables Cable connections are shown in Figure 2-3, as below: Figure 2-3 USB, HDMI Output and Power Cables DE10-Nano Getting Started Guide July 25, 2017 5 www.terasic.com.tw 2.4 Powering up the DE10-Nano Board with Xfce Desktop Environment To power-up the board and run the Xfce desktop, perform the following steps below: 1. To perform this power up test, user will need some additional parts as list in below: i. A micro USB OTG cable. ii. HDMI Monitor and HDMI cable. iii. USB Mouse or Keyboard 2. Connect the provided power cord to the power supply and plug the cord into a power outlet (verify the voltage supplied is the same as the specification on the power supply). 3. Connect the HDMI port of DE10-Nano to a monitor with HDMI input. 4. Make sure the Factory SD Card is inserted in the SD Card socket. 5. Connect the supplied DE10-Nano power adapter to the power connector (J14) on the DE10-Nano board. At this point, you should see the 3.3V indicator LED (LED9) turned on. 6. It will take about 35 seconds to boot Linux. Finally, the screen will enter Xfce desktop on the monitor (See Figure 2-5 ). 7. After the Xfce system is ready, connect a Mouse/Keyboard to the USB OTG port (J2) via Micro USB OTG Cable (*1) (*2). 8. Now, user can use mouse/keyboard on the Xfce desktop. (*1) Because the USB gadget function is enable by default in the Xfce system, any external USB device needs to be connected to the DE10-nano AFTER the Xfce boots up. Otherwise the external USB device will not be detected by the system. For how to enable/disable USB gadget function in the Xfce system, please refer to the section 6.4. (*2)Some USB mouse or keyboard may have compatibility problem with the Xfce system, if user’s mouse or keyboard don’t get any response in the Xfce system, please re-plug the USB cable or change to other brand’s USB mouse or keyboard.
