The Nvidia Jetson AGX Orin 32GB development kit can be identified by the label printed on the inside bottom of the unit as shown. It mentions part number 975-13730-0000-000 but does not actually say 32GB.

This device exposes a debug UART interface over the microUSB port. From Linux machines, the serial connection can be accessed using `minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0`. It also offers one Display Port for video output.

The default internal storage used for provisioning balenaOS is the AGX Orin 32GB's on-board eMMC, and the [Jetson Flash](https://github.com/balena-os/jetson-flash) tool is used for provisioning balenaOS. The eMMC is the only boot medium supported for this device type currently.

#### **Checking your Jetson Orin's UEFI firmware version**

You can check which UEFI firmware version your Jetson Orin device is running either by connecting to your device's debug UART interface, or by attaching a display to the Orin's video port.

<summary>I want to use the debug UART interface</summary>

The debug UART interface of the Jetson AGX Orin 32GB Devkit is available through the micro-USB interface, when the device is powered on. Connect the other end of the micro-usb cable to your host/development PC. If your host is running Linux, the serial connection to the Jetson device can be accessed using `minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0`.

If you are using the UART interface, the UEFI firmware version will be printed in the boot sequence logs:

Alternatively, if booting is stopped in the UEFI menu by pressing `Esc`, the firmware version will be printed in the top-left corner:

<summary>I want to use a monitor</summary>

**A Display Port cable or Display Port to HDMI adapter is necessary for connecting your Jetson AGX Orin Devkit 32GB to a monitor.** Once the monitor is attached, the UEFI firmware version will be displayed at the top of the screen:
