+Serial Console
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+ By default, all of these configurations use UART0 for the NuttX serial
+ console. UART0 corresponds to the DB-9 connector labelled "UART". This
+ is a male connector and will require a female-to-female, NUL modem cable
+ to connect to a PC.
+
+ An alternate is USART1 which connects to the other DB-9 connector labeled
+ "USART". USART1 is not enabled by default unless specifically noted
+ otherwise in the configuration description. A NUL modem cable must be
+ used with the port as well.
+
+ NOTE: One of the USART1 pins is shared with the audio CODEC. The audio
+ CODEC cannot be used of USART1 is enabled.
+
+ By default serial console is configured for 115000, 8-bit, 1 stop bit, and
+ no parity.
