Turing pi 2.5 not recognizing Orin NX
# │forum

I am having a hell of a time trying to connect to any of my orin nx modules. Here is my setup: I have 2 boards (2.5) one with 4 RK1's and 1 with 4 Orin NX 16GB. I am trying to connect my windows laptop with a linux 20.04 vmware vm. I am using a USB-A to USB-A data transfer cable. I am able to connect the USB port to the VM however in removable devices, instead of seeing NVIDIA APX I am seeing the he name of the cable itself which is "Ours Smartkmlink" I have gone through the instructions up until the point where I should see nvidia apx with LSUSB, but all I see is @ubuntu:~$ lsusb Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0ea0:7301 Ours Technology, Inc. SmartKMLink Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0e0f:0002 VMware, Inc. Virtual USB Hub Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0e0f:0003 VMware, Inc. Virtual Mouse Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub I thought maybe that's just how it is with this cable and tried to flash the node, but that didn't work. Is it the cable? Other prep conditions are: using node 2 in flash mode. I turned the node off, made the change in the BMC gui and then powered it back on the eeprom size is 0 I ran the binaries and created the default user the board's firmware is updated to 2.1 (latest) the USB cable is connected to one of the two horizontal ports in the board. I am also using a case with 2 USB ports in the front that connects to the USB header on the board. I have tried all USB ports to no avail

The v2.5.2 board's rear, vertical USB-A port is not used to flash modules. This port is now dedicated to node 1. The rear USB-C port, marked USB-OTG, is now used for this purpose. There is no ability to switch this port since it is connected to a USB 2.0 hub on the board. Just put the node in flash mode and power on the module.

OMG really? All of the documentation I’ve seen says use an A-A cable. I thought that would completely eliminate the C port. Anyway I really appreciate the help you always give. Thank you

The documentation was written for the first generation (v2.3/v2.4), Kickstarter-funded Turing Pi 2. The second generation (v2.5.2) board addressed a number of issues discovered in the original design. One was the USB interface implementation used to flash compute modules. I haven't encountered an issue with the USB 2.0 hub implementation on the v2.5.2 board.
Also, and I don't mean to be a jerk, but that is the only documentation that I am aware of. Is there documentation specifically for the 2.5 board?

Nothing beyond this Changelog on the documentation site: https://docs.turingpi.com/changelog
