Hi Bob,
I'm just getting started on software for the Blinky, but to do that, I need to find things on the schematic. I found the schematic on gihub (Schematic_231004.pdf) but it is not searchable, so I really can't find (easily) where traces connect. For example, I found "UART_TX1 (as well as RX1,2 and Tx2) but can't easily see what they connect to. Is there a header somewhere (I could not see that on the physical board).
If you can tell me where the UART lines go reasonbly soon, that would help, but in the slightly longer term if you can make a KiCad PDF schematic with the "plot" command rather than the "print" command (the ONLY thing that I know about Kicad, I might add), that will produce a PDF with actual text in it such that it can be searched.
Thanks!

Actually, I just found them on the PC104. 73,
