Hardware Setup
DroneCore Suite 2 is shipped with the compute module and extension board pre-assembled. No mechanical assembly is required before first use. If you need to replace or upgrade these components, refer to the
[mechanical assembly guide]([TODO: link]).
1. Verify VDD_MAIN
Before connecting power, double-check:
The correct power supply voltage for your extension board (see Expansion Boards).
The power connector is firmly attached to the VDD_MAIN connector.
No short circuits or exposed conductors are present.
2. Connect USB for SSH Access
Connect a Micro USB or USB-C cable from your host PC to the developer USB port on DCS2. This creates a USB-to-Ethernet connection used for SSH access.
3. Connect HDMI (optional)
For local display access, connect an HDMI cable between DCS2 and a monitor before powering on.
4. Apply Power
Connect the power supply to VDD_MAIN. The board will begin booting automatically.
