Currently TestSuite only supports a serial transport between the test PC and the Meadow. On the Meadow UART4 is used, which is on pins D00
and D01
and is a TTL UART.
This also requires signal conditioning for a typical PC. A UBS Serial to TTL Converter is typically required. Only the TX and RX pins fromt he converter need to be connected.
An example converter can be found here, though there are many available from many sources.
