Check that the connectors on both ends of each ribbon cable are properly engaged into their respective box headers. Eval. Kit Gate & Source Connectors Display Connectors 2. Ensure that the display connectors are fully engaged with their respective flip-lock connectors on the Eval. Kit Gate & Source connectors (red arrows). If not, lift up the black plastic flip-lock, fully insert the display connector and push down to close the flip-lock. 3. Please ensure that display 1 gate connector is connected to the display gate and that display 1 source connector is connected to the source. If you have a dual display kit, please do the same with connectors of display 2. Connecting these the wrong way round will probably irreparably damage the display. 4. Connect the 5V power cable to the processor board 1 (N.B. This will supply power for all boards). (Note: The power connector on the Hummingbird Z3 board 2 is only for initial programming mode). 3.3 System boot and image display 1. Turn on the power at the mains and move the Freescale boards power slider switch to on (default position at delivery). 2. A red LED on the Freescale Board should start flashing and two green LEDs (D3 & D4) on the Hummingbird board should be illuminated. 3. Now wait for approximately 45 seconds for the Freescale processor to boot and load the operating system. 4. Shortly afterwards, the Plastic Logic display should start being updated with a sequence of images at approximately 5 second intervals.
