Using the system

This guide explains how to use the system.

Booting the System

After completing the system installation, install the boot media to the corresponding position on the motherboard, then power on the board using the power adapter to start the system.

Boot Priority

If you have multiple boot media installed on the motherboard, the system will boot from the media with the highest priority by default. To boot from a lower priority media, you can remove the higher priority boot media.

Boot priority: microSD > onboard eMMC
