| **NOTE**: TX and RX are labelled from the perspective of the UART Cable! Connect the cable/adapter's RX to the pin labelled ''TX'' (Pin 4) and the adapter's TX to ''RX'' (Pin 3). \\ Please also note that you need to power the BeagleBone Blue device by using the generic 5V USB port or the 12V power port! | **NOTE**: TX and RX are labelled from the perspective of the UART Cable!
