Before you plug in DC power cable, you should plug in Ethernet cable, keyboard and mouse USB cables to USB ports, HDMI cable to HDMI port socket for monitoring the system.

After connections are done, you can plug in the DC power cable to “X8” socket. The system runs as soon as you plug the DC power cable. The DC Power Source should be in the range of 9-40 Volt DC. You can find the DC Power socket when you open the package of the product.
