WARNING! Read Before Using Bitporter
Never apply power to the target board without the Bitporter
pod turned on.
The Bitporter pod must always be powered if the connected
target board is powered.
Always supply power to the Bitporter pod first before supplying
power to the target board.
Always power down the target board before powering down
the Bitporter pod.
When power-cycling the Bitporter pod, leave it turned off for at
least five seconds.
Do not plug in the Bitporter’s DC power cable except when
using the Ethernet interface. The USB interface is ignored when
DC power is supplied. (When USB connectivity is required, the
USB cable provides sufficient power for the Bitporter. The USB
cable must be plugged into a powered USB port in the host PC.)
