Unpacking

 Your box includes the Topaz Development Kit and several cables:

•  The USB cable provides power to the development kit
• The Ethernet cable provides network connection for download and debugging applications
• The Serial cable is required for some update procedures

 These pictures show you where to find the main features on the Development Kit: 

Powering the board

The TDK can be powered via the USB OTG port when you have no display, or the 4.3" LCD connected.

The 7" LCD ships with a 5V/2A power supply and this is required to power Topaz when this larger display is connected.
