-# Debugging
-
-It is possible to debug AGL images on Raspberry Pi using 3.3V USB to serial cable, such as [Olimex USB-Serial-Cable-F](https://www.olimex.com/Products/Components/Cables/USB-Serial-Cable/USB-Serial-Cable-F/), connected to the UART of the board. Follow the instructions below to connect a cable to the board (do it on your own risk, no warranty is provided):
-
-* Connect the BLUE wire if you are using Olimex USB-Serial-Cable-F to pin 6 of Raspberry Pi,
-* Connect the RX line of the cable (GREEN wire if you are using Olimex USB-Serial-Cable-F) to pin 8 (TX line) of Raspberry Pi,
-* Connect the TX line of the cable (RED wire if you are using Olimex USB-Serial-Cable-F) to pin 10 (RX line) of Raspberry Pi.
-
-![Olimex USB-Serial-Cable-F attached to Raspberry PI 2 for debugging through the serial console](images/RaspberryPi2-ModelB-debug-serial-cable.jpg)
-
-* Plug the USB connector of the cable to your computer and use your favorite tool for serial communication, for example on Ubuntu and other Linux distributions you may use screen:
-
-```bash
-sudo screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200
-```
-
-Pay attention that the colors of the cable may vary depending on the vendor. If you have USB console cable from Adafruit please have a look [here](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruits-raspberry-pi-lesson-5-using-a-console-cable/connect-the-lead).

+## 6. Debugging
+
+When things go wrong, you can take steps to debug your Raspberry PI.
+For debugging, you need a 3.3 Volt USB Serial cable to fascilitate
+communication between your Raspberry PI board and your build host.
+A good cable to use is the 3.3V USB-to-Serial cable
+[Olimex USB-Serial-Cable-F](https://www.olimex.com/Products/Components/Cables/USB-Serial-Cable/USB-Serial-Cable-F/).
+
+**NOTE:** If you are using a USB console cable from Adafruit, see
+"[Adafruit's Raspberry Pi Lesson 5](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruits-raspberry-pi-lesson-5-using-a-console-cable/connect-the-lead)"
+for connection information.
+
+Use the following steps, which assume you are using the previously mentioned
+Olimex cable.
+You can reference the following diagram for information on the following steps:
+
+<p align="center">
+ <img src="./images/RaspberryPi2-ModelB-debug-serial-cable.png">
+</p>
+
+1. Connect the Olimex cable to the Universal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitter
+ (UART) connection on your Raspberry PI board.
+ Do not connect the USB side of the cable to your build host at this time.
+
+ **CAUTION:** No warranty is provided using the following procedure.
+ Pay particular attention to the collors of your cable as they could
+ vary depending on the vendor.
+
+2. Connect the cable's BLUE wire to pin 6 (i.e. Ground) of the UART.
+
+3. Connect the cable's GREEN RX line to pin 8 (i.e. the TXD line) of
+ the UART.
+
+4. Connect the cable's RED TX line to pin 10 (i.e. the RXD line) of
+ the UART.
+
+5. Plug the USB connector of the cable into your build host's USB port.
+
+6. Use your favorite tool for serial communication between your build host
+ and your Raspberry PI.
+ For example, if your build host is a native Linux machine (e.g. Ubuntu)
+ you could use `screen` as follows from a terminal on the build host:
+
+ ```bash
+ $ sudo screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200
+ ```
