Booting up the UC-8410A-LX for the First Time

We suggest using the serial console to log in for the first time. See the UC-8410A Hardware User’s Manual for

instructions on how to connect to the serial console.

File System Resizing

Connect the UC-8410A-LX to a 12-48 VDC power source; the computer will immediately boot up. The power

LED will be light up first, after which the SD Card LED will light up. You will also see messages printed out from

the serial console. On the first boot up, you will notice that the root filesystem is being resized and initialized,

as indicated by the notification shown below.
