* ON: Enables the embedded bootloader. Firmware can be upload via the USB port on the breakout board (DFU). USB-A to USB-A (non-crossover) cable required. The Portenta H7 has to be powered through the USB-C connector or VIN.

Users must pay special attention to the DIP switches position to ensure the right boot mode is selected before powering the board. If the RESET button does not behave as expected, or you are unable to enter _Bootloader Mode_, you should verify the DIP switch configuration.

**For the standard operation mode both DIP switches must be set to OFF**. To do so, simply position the white switches next to "1" and "2" respectively (opposite the "ON" label printed on the switch connector itself).
