DEVELOPER KIT

QUICK START GUIDE

INTRODUCTION

The NVIDIA

Jetson TX1 Developer Kit is a full-featured

development platform for visual computing. It is ideal for

applications requiring high computational performance

in a low power envelope. The Jetson TX1 Developer kit is

designed to get you up and running quickly by shipping

pre-ﬂashed with a Linux environment. It includes support

for many common APIs and is supported by the complete

NVIDIA development tool chain. The board exposes many

standard hardware interfaces, enabling a highly ﬂexible

and extensible platform.

Go to http://developer.nvidia.com/embedded-computing

for access to software updates and the developer SDK

supporting the OS image and host development platform

that you want to use. The SDK includes an OS image that

you will load onto your device, developer tools, supporting

documentation, and code samples to help you get started.

GETTING STARTED

Individual development efforts will vary and may

result in modiﬁcations to the system conﬁguration. It

is recommended that you begin with the basic system

conﬁguration (as shipped) to ensure proper system

operation prior to any further development.

CAUTION: The NVIDIA

Jetson TX1 Developer

Kit contains ESD-sensitive parts. Always use

appropriate anti-static and grounding techniques

when working with the system. Failure to do so

can result in ESD discharge to sensitive pins, and

irreparably damage your Jetson TX1 Developer

Kit. NVIDIA will not replace units that have been

damaged due to ESD discharge. Always disconnect

any power source prior to adding additional

modules or connecting peripheral devices to the

developer board. It is important that all modules

are properly seated in their connectors to ensure

proper operation and to avoid damaging the module

or the carrier board.

Installing the antennas

Install the antennas into the threaded connectors on the

bracket shown [3]. Both included antennas are identical and

can be installed on either threaded connector. Be careful

not to cross thread the antenna or the antenna may not be

seated all the way and will lead to poor reception.

Expansion Header Voltage Selection

Voltage level for the Expansion Header [15] is set by the

Expansion Header Voltage Selection jumper [13]. For default

voltage 3.3V, the jumper is installed on pins 1-2. For alternate

voltage 1.8V, the jumper is installed on pins 2-3.

Powering Up

1. Connect a USB keyboard and mouse. It is recommended

to connect these devices to a USB hub (not provided),

with the hub connected to the USB Type A connector of

your device [5].

2. Connect an HDMI-compatible display to the HDMI

connector on your device [7].

3. Connect the AC adapter supplied in your kit to the

power connector of your device. Use the supplied AC

adapter since it is appropriately rated for your kit.

4. Plug the power adapter into an appropriately rated

electrical outlet.

5. Press and release the power button on the device [19].

accordingly.

Force Recovery Mode

You must be in Forced USB Recovery Mode to update your

system and transfer system software to the developer

board. When in Force USB Recovery Mode, you are able

to update system software and write the boot loader, boot

conﬁguration table (BCT), and partition conﬁguration.

See the Developer SDK documentation for OS-speciﬁc

instructions when updating system software on your

Developer Kit.

CAUTION: ALWAYS CONNECT ALL EXTERNAL

PERIPHERAL DEVICES BEFORE CONNECTING

THE POWER SUPPLY TO THE AC POWER JACK.

Connecting a device while powered on may damage

the Developer Kit or peripheral device. The board

should be powered down and the power removed

before plugging or unplugging devices or add-on

modules into the headers. (Wait for the red power

LED to turn off, or wait for 5 minutes if your system

does not have a power LED.) This includes the

camera and display headers, the M.2 connector, the

PCIe x4 connector, SATA, and the expansion headers.

Place system in Force USB Recovery Mode:

1. Power down the device. If connected, remove the AC

adapter from the device. The device MUST be powered

OFF, not in a suspend or sleep state.

2. Connect the Micro-B plug on the USB cable to the

Recovery (USB Micro-B) Port on the device [4] and the

other end to an available USB port on the host PC.

3. Connect the power adapter to the device [2].

4. With the system powered on, press and release the

POWER button [19]; press and hold the RECOVERY

FORCE button [20]; while depressing the RECOVERY

FORCE button, press and release the RESET button

[22]; wait two seconds and release the RECOVERY

FORCE button.

Note: When in Force USB Recovery Mode, the

development system will not boot up (nothing

appears on display or serial port).

After successfully updating the system software and

restarting your Developer Kit, the system continues

through the boot up process.
