Note: Carefully read this module's cover page clicking on "Module 1: Unboxing and Bring-up" on the left menu bar before starting this lesson. Attention: In order to avoid a known issue of continuous reboot/reset using Verdin Development Board V1.0B, please expand the collapsed section below.
Remove the Verdin Development Board and the Verdin Computer on Module from the blisters. Insert the computer on module into the X1 connector of the Carrier Board as tight as possible, with the module inclined ~30 to 45 degrees in relation to the carrier board.
Connecting the computer on module to the Verdin Development Board
Warning: Make sure that the module is well connected to the carrier board. The image below has some checkpoints highlighted.

Note: Ethernet network must provide DHCP and Internet to the module.
Attention: Double check that your power supply is within the Verdin Development Board limits (7-27V) and that the polarity is not inverted. Also, make sure that the current capability of the power supply is enough, or the system may shut down unexpectedly. For evaluation purposes, a 12V 2A power supply is recommended.
