      Good morning. Looking in the documentation I see mention on using the J9 connector as a secondary HOST port.

      My plan is to use one of the UARTs as a tty to access the device using a shell to debug our software and/or to toggle between HOST mode and the default mode.

      What I can't find is a tutorial or specific steps I need to take to be able to change the port into HOST mode and back to peripheral mode. In particular:

      • Software/configuration changes needed to change to HOST mode?
      • Some documentation mentions needing to use special cables, while others do not.

      Any examples would be fantastic.

      Thanks,
      Brendon.

        VOXL 2 Mini USB OTG negotiates automatically. There should not be a special cable required for VOXL 2 Mini

        VOXL 1 required a special cable and VOXL 2 OTG does not currently work

            @Moderator Can you take a look at my new post.
            I can see that the mount command in syslog. No errors, but the mounted file system doesn't show up.

            Thanks,
            Brendon.
