Setting up the system
1. The HummingBoard boots from the microSD. If you purchased a pre-loaded microSD then skip to
step #3.
2. When using your own micro SD device, we recommend a 4GB micro SD class4 or higher.
3. Power Adapter: you may choose your own power adapter, make sure to use a power adapter with
the following specification:
Regulated 5V supply with 2A source capacity.
Micro USB plug type.
Use only limited power source (LPS) power adapter with adequate protections. Power
adapter should meet local safety regulations.
4. To run applications or distributions on your HummingBoard, you must install them on the microSD
card. Visit this link for more details:
http://www.solid-run.com/support/install-os-micro-sd-flash-card/
5. Once you have your HummingBoard, microSD and power adapter ready, insert the micro SD in the
microSD slot with the microSD pins facing up.
6. Connect an Ethernet cable to your HummingBoard device if network connectivity is desired.
7. Connect the HummingBoard to a display screen via an HDMI cable.
8. Connect your power adapter to the Micro USB connector, and then connect the adapter to mains
supply.

COMPLIANCE AND SAFETY INFORMATION
1. For USA - Federal Communication Commission Statement
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection. This equipment
generates, uses, and can emit radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
2. For EU - CE compliance
This device complies with the EMC Directive 2004/108/EC and Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC.
Note: Shielded Ethernet cable must be used in order to comply with emission limits.
3. Safety notice
a) This device is to be used with Certified Power adaptor with output rated at 5VDC, 2A. Power adapter
must meet Limited power source (LPS) requirements.
b) Power adapter must meet local safety standards and requirements based on product intended use.
c) Power adapter must meet Operating environment conditions as specified in section 4 above.
d) This device does not ship with a battery. Safety testing was made without an RTC backup battery.
e) Careful testing and measurement of component temperature must be made when enclosing the
HummingBoard models with add-ons such as RTC battery, PCIe add-on, mSATA add-on or USB devices
connected to internal USB ports. RTC Backup Batteries have critical safety parameters such as
temperature range and current rating that must NOT be exceeded. RTC circuit is included in figure 3
for reference.
f) When installing RTC Backup battery, check for: Compatibility with NXP’s PCF8523 specifications.
Positive pin of battery is connected to pin 1 of the RTC Backup Battery connector (see figure 2).
Battery’s actual worst case temperature and withdraw current meet battery specification.
g) Caution, Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries
according to the local regulations.
h)Some surfaces of the device might reach high temperature when the device is under heavy work load.
See figure 2, page 3
4. Disposal
