 * Download PhoenixCard: https://pan.baidu.com/s/1-fjvPqtG_zewVzqnXf1AHw?pwd=eid9

Load your first image on M2U EMMC

 1.Bootup your M2U with Micro SD card
 2.Copy "xxx-sd-emmc-xxx.img.zip / xxx-sd-emmc-xxx.img" to your USB disk
 3.Plug your USB disk in M2U
 4.Mount the USB disk and flash the image file to eMMC
 * bpi-tools
 curl -sL https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/bpi-tools/raw/master/bpi-tools%7Csudo -E bash
 mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
 cd /mnt
 bpi-copy xxx-sd-emmc-xxx.img.zip /dev/mmcblk0
 * dd command
 mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
 cd /mnt
 unzip -p xxx-sd-emmc-xxx.img.zip |pv| dd of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=10M status=noxfer
 5.Then power off M2U, take TF card out, power on M2U

Advanced Development

How to build uboot & kernel

Install tools

Clone code

SATA

1. Mount SATA on M2U

 M2U Sata.png
  • After insert sata interface, execute "fdisk -l"
 M2U Sata fdisk l.png
  • Then "mount /dev/sdx /mnt/xxx"

2. If you meet some errors when you mount SATA, try these following commands:

  • "fdisk /dev/sdx" to create new partition , set your partition numbers and size, after created partitions, input "wq" to save and quit.
  • "mkfs.ext2 /dev/sdx" to format the SATA
  • "mount /dev/sdx /mnt/xxx"

3. After you success to insert SATA, we could input following commands to test SATA interface:

  • "time dd if=/dev/xxx of=/dev/null bs=1M count=1000" to test read speed
  • "time dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx bs=1M count=1000" to test write speed
 Sata test.png

OTG

1. On M2U console:

  • Execute "/usr/local/bin/adbd.sh", then execute "ps -ax | grep adbd" to see if adbd is set up
 M2P ADBD.png

2. On PC terminal:

  • If adbd was succeed to set up, insert OTG-USB interface to M2U and PC(with Ubuntu system)
  • Execute "adb devices" to see if PC has recognised M2U OTG
  • If yes, we could execute "adb shell" to connect M2U by adb now
 M2P ADBD Shell.png

LCD 5" & LCD 7"

  • Execute "bpi-bootsel", you'll see a list of boot files
  • Find "BPI_M2U_LCD7.img.gz"
  • Then execute "bpi-bootsel /usr/lib/u-boot/bananapi/bpi-m2u/BPI_M2U_LCD7.img.gz"
 M2U bootsel lcd7.png

Touch screen

GMAC

Use iperf3 to test gmac

1. On PC Terminal:

  • Execute "iperf3 -s"

2. On M2U console:

  • TCP test: "iperf3 -c serverIP"
  • UDP test: "iperf3 -u -c serverIP"

M2U Gmac test.png

Bluetooth

  • Use bluetoothctl tool to operate BT
  • Execute "bluetoothctl"
  • If you don't know how to use bluetoothctl, type "help", you will see more commands
  • Execute these commands:

WiFi on M2U

WiFi Client

You have two ways to setup WiFi Client

1. Use commands to setup WiFi client

  • ip link set wlan0 up
  • iw dev wlan0 scan | grep SSID
  • vim /etc/wpasupplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
 network={    
 ssid="ssid"    
 psk="password"    
 priority=1 
 }
  • wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
  • dhclient wlan0

2. Use UI interface to setup WiFi Client

Clear boot

Camara function

We use HDF5640 camara.

Ov5640 camara.png

Guvcview

  • Use your UI interface to operate camara
  • Applications -> Sound & Video -> guvcview

Shell

  • We also have built-in command in "/usr/local/bin" to test camara
  • "./test_ov5640_image_mode.sh" to test picture taking function
  • "./cameratest.sh" to test video recording function

IR function

  • Execute "getevent"
  • Use your IR device to send information to M2U

RPi.GPIO

Install RPi.GPIO

  • Execute "git clone https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/RPi.GPIO"
  • after clone the repo, cd RPi,GPIO
  • Execute "sudo apt-get update"
  • Execute "sudo apt-get install python-dev python3-dev"
  • Execute "sudo python setup.py install" or "sudo python3 setup.py install" to install the module

Using RPi.GPIO

  • cd /usr/local/bin
  • Execute "./bpi_test_g40.py" to test RPi.GPIO

RPi GPIO.png

WringPi

RGB 1602 LCD

  • Execute "/usr/local/bin/bpi_test_lcd1602.sh"

0.96 Inch OLED Display

  • Execute "/usr/local/bin/bpi_test_52pi.sh"

8x8 RGB LED Martix

  • Firstly you need a GPIO Extend Board for 8x8 LED Martix

WringPi LED Martix Extend Board.png

  • Execute "/usr/local/bin/bpi_test_gpio40.sh"

File System

  • read only system change to read & write mode: "mount -o remount,rw /"

Install Qt5.7 & Qtcreator

1.Prepare a 32Gb TF card

2.Use GParted to resize root point '/' as 32Gb

3.apt-get install libxcb*

4.download qt5.7

5.make & make install

6.apt-get install qtcreator
