Dear community,
we try to set up an AXC F XT KIT SSD extension on a AXC F 3152. We plugged the module to the left of the controller, but the controller does not “see” the SSD. We’ve heard that some configuration is needed, but in the engineer, there seem to be only right-sided modules.
Any help/documentation is appreciated. 
BTW, does the same procedure apply to AXC F XT ML 1000?
Best regards and many thanks,
Holger Eichelberger
Are you referring to this product?

That module can be used with many types of Mini PCIe devices, not only SSDs.
There is an example in Github that demonstrates the use of this module with a USB device:

The ML 1000 module requires a different setup. Please follow the instructions in the PLCnext Info Center:
How to set up AXC F XT ML 1000 After you have added the files libedgetpu.so.1 and libflatbuffers.so.1 to the /usr/lib directory, check whether the AXC F XT ML 1000 module is accessible:
I hope this helps you to get started. Please let us know if you have other questions.
Indeed, that’s exactly the product. I would be happy, if it would be working with a SSD rather than with some USB device, but interesting project However, the usual system tools and neither /sys nor /proc seem to indicate that there is a second drive besides sda and the installed SD card. Any further help is welcome
For the AXC F XT ML 1000, we will give it a try as soon as we have our free AXC F 3152 on site… Thanks anway for the link (just seems to be some software steps).
Best,
