Plug your APFxx module to your development board (custom or DevLight/DevFull) (your system will be hereafter referred to as "the Target")

Connect your PC (= "the Host") to your board with a null-modem RS232 cable (only Rx/Tx/Gnd signals are needed). If you don't have a RS232 port on your Host, you can use a "USB <-> RS-232" converter (you'll still require the null-modem cable).

Connect your Target to your local network with an Ethernet Cable. If you don't any network, you can use an Ethernet crossover cable.
