To prepare the T1040RDB for use, default configuration should be: CPU: 1.4 GHz,
DDR: 1600 MT/s. The steps are:
1.
Attach an RS-232 cable between the T1040RDB UART0 port and host computer
2. Open a serial console tool on the host computer to communicate with the T1040RDB
3. Configure the host computer's serial port with the following settings:
• Data rate: 115200 bps
• Number of data bits: 8
• Parity: None
• Number of stop bits: 1
• Flow control: Hardware/None
