You will need

• D7 SDK for Linux or Windows
• D7 target device
• AMPSEAL 770680-1 Receptacle Housing, 23 Position for power and CAN/J1939, analog video in, audio out, serial
• AMPSEAL 776164-1 Receptacle Housing, 35 Position for analog and digital IO
• AMPSEAL 1.3 mm contacts
• USB-C cable to flash the device to begin development
• 1/16" allen key or hex bit to access: bootloader microswitches (for flashing and recovery), microSD holder, SIM card holder, debug UART
• USB-C stick or (microSD to USB-C adapter) for Application Software Updates
• M12 X-Coded ethernet cable for SSH via Gigabit Ethernet
• M12 NMEA 2000 cable for isolated CAN (if applicable)
• SKEDD and USB-UART - optional for debug console

For most of the development cycle, you will likely want a very tight edit-build-run-debug loop. To that end, the development image running on the device has a built-in SSH server as well as access to a console via serial port.

Powering the device

In order to power the D7 you will need to provide between 6 and 36 Volts on Pin 1 of its AMPSEAL 23-way connector. Pin 3 is ground.

You will need TE part number 770680-1 for 16-20 AWG or 2371884-1 for 20-24 AWG. Plus 1.3mm contacts.

Summary

In this section we have described necessary cables and connectors to power on and connect to the D7.

Note

As mentioned above, this is still subject to change in future releases.
