Put on the ESD wrist strap, ensure that it is connected to the ESD mat and that the ESD mat is grounded.
Connect the FlashPro6 JTAG debugger to your computer via the USB cable.
Plug the other end of the JTAG debugger to the board on the JTAG header connector as shown in the figures below.

WARNING: Throughout this process, make sure that the positive and negative power lines DO NOT TOUCH. Keep them well away from each other to prevent a short from happening
Put on the ESD wrist strap, ensure that it is connected to the ESD mat and that the ESD mat is grounded
Make sure the power and ground pins are NOT connected to the variable power supply, to prevent accidental shorts
While the variable power supply is NOT connected to the EM board, turn on the variable power supply and:
Make sure it is on Constant Voltage (C.V.) mode
Set it to 6.40 V
Turn off the power supply
Hook up the multimeter to the power supply and set the multimeter to measure voltage
Turn on the power supply
Check the voltage using on the multimeter to confirm it reads 6.40 V
Turn off the variable power supply
Plug the ground cable onto the two CDH_NEG pins on the board
Plug the power cable onto the two CDH_POS pins on the board
Connect the ground cable to the variable power supply's negative (black) power terminal with the alligator clip
Connect the power cable to the variable power supply's positive (red) power terminal with the alligator clip
Turn on the variable power supply
WARNING: Throughout this process, make sure that the positive and negative power lines DO NOT TOUCH. Keep them well away from each other to prevent a short from happening.
Put on the ESD wrist strap, ensure that it is connected to the ESD mat and that the ESD mat is grounded.
Turn off the variable power supply.
Disconnect the power cable to the variable power supply's positive (red) power terminal with the alligator clip.
Disconnect the ground cable to the variable power supply's negative (black) power terminal with the alligator clip
You should be able to interface with the board with the JTAG Debugger using Libero SoC and SoftConsole, after the board has been connected to the debugger and powered on. For details on the required software versions and the project details, please visit the Flight Software design page.
