===How to burn image for SD, EMMC Nand===
 +
  Release Image:  https://wiki.banana-pi.org/Banana_Pi_BPI-R4#Release_image
 +
  Note: boot device select:  https://wiki.banana-pi.org/Getting_Started_with_BPI-R4#Prepare_to_develop
 +
====How to burn image to SD card====
 +
  A. Note: burn image to SD card on linux computer
 +
    1.You could download latest image from our forum
 +
 
 +
    2.Install bpi-tools on your Ubuntu. If you can't access this URL or any other problems, please go to [https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/bpi-tools bpi-tools repo] and install this tools manually.
 +
    * apt-get install pv
 +
    * curl -sL https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/bpi-tools/raw/master/bpi-tools | sudo -E bash
 +
 
 +
    3.After you download the image, insert your TF card into your Ubuntu
 +
    * Execute "bpi-copy xxx.img /dev/sdx" to install image on your TF card
 +
 
 +
    4.After step 3, then you can insert your TF card into R4, and press power button to setup R4
 +
 
 +
  B. Note: burn image to SD card on windows computer
 +
    [https://balena.io/etcher Balena Etcher] is an opensource GUI flash tool by Balena, Flash OS images to SDcard or USB drive.
 +
    Click on "'''Flash from file'''" to select image.
 +
    Click on "'''Select target'''" to select USB device.
 +
    Click on "'''Flash!'''" Start burning.
 +
    [[File:etcher.jpg]]
 +
 
 +
  C. Change Boot Jumper to boot from SD, Enable SD Card Device.
 +
 
 +
  * Note: boot device select:  https://wiki.banana-pi.org/Getting_Started_with_BPI-R4#Prepare_to_develop
 +
  * Note: please low level format the SD and clear all data of SD. it's very important.
 +
 +
====How to burn image to onboard Nand====
 +
  Note: when you want to Update Nand device, Firstly Change boot switch to boot from SD device and insert one SD with SD boot Image, then after boot up,you need flash one nand image into nand device. Finally you change bootstrap to boot from Nand device.
 +
 +
  Before burning image into Nand, please prepare a USB disk. Let's take OpenWrt image (mtk-bpi-r4-NAND-20231030.img) for example, the steps are below:
 +
 +
  1. Copy Nand boot OpenWrt image(mtk-bpi-r4-NAND-20231030.img) to USB disk.
 +
 
 +
  2. Change boot switch Jumper, the board boot from SD device, then power up the board.
 +
 
 +
  3. Plug in USB disk to the board, and mount the USB to /mnt or other directory as follows: (you can skip mounting if it is mounted automatically)
 +
    * mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt
 +
    * change your directory to the mounting point, here is : cd /mnt
 +
 +
  4. Execute following command to erase the whole Nand flash and copy image to nand device:
 +
    * mtd erase /dev/mtd0
 +
    * dd if=mtk-bpi-r4-NAND-20231030.img of=/dev/mtdblock0
 +
 +
  5. Power off BPI-R4 board, unplug u-disk driver, change bootstrap to boot from Nand device.
 +
    * Note: Enable Nand device, boot strap is from Nand.
 +
    * Note: boot device select:  https://wiki.banana-pi.org/Getting_Started_with_BPI-R4#Prepare_to_develop
 +
 +
====How to burn image to onboard eMMC====
 +
  Note: because SD card and EMMC device share one SOC's controller, it is necessary to switch to NAND startup and then burn the EMMC image into the EMMC. Finally, you will change the boot to boot from EMMC.
 +
 +
  Before burning image to eMMC, please prepare a USB disk. Let's take OpenWrt image (bl2_emmc-r4.img, mtk-bpi-r4-EMMC-20231030.img) for example, the steps are below:
 +
 +
  1. Copy EMMC boot OpenWrt image(bl2_emmc-r4.img, mtk-bpi-r4-EMMC-20231030.img) to USB disk, if the image is compressed please uncompress it before copying to USB disk.
 +
 +
  2. Change the switch jumper to Nand and start the motherboard from Nand.
 +
    Note: Enable Nand device, boot strap is from Nand
 +
 
 +
  3. Plug in USB disk to the board, and mount the USB to /mnt or other directory as follows: (you can skip mounting if it is mounted automatically)
 +
    * mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt
 +
    * change your directory to the mounting point, here is : cd /mnt
 +
 
 +
  4. Execute :
 +
    * echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
 +
    * dd if=bl2_emmc-r4.img of=/dev/mmcblk0boot0
 +
    * dd if=mtk-bpi-r4-EMMC-20231030.img of=/dev/mmcblk0
 +
    * mmc bootpart enable 1 1 /dev/mmcblk0
 +
 
 +
  5. Power off R4 board, remove u-disk driver, change bootstrap to boot from emmc device.
 +
    * Note: Enable EMMC device, boot strap is from EMMC.
 +
    * Note: boot device select:  https://wiki.banana-pi.org/Getting_Started_with_BPI-R4#Prepare_to_develop
 +
 +
=== Network-Configuration===
 +
*Network-Configuration refer to: http://www.fw-web.de/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=en:bpi-r2:network:start
 +
*Network Interface: eth2, lan0 is for WAN; eth1, lan0, lan1, lan2, lan3 is for LAN,  ra0/ra1 is for 2.4G wireless, rai0 is for 5G wifi6 wireless, rax0 is for 6G wifi7 wireless.

Basic Development

Prepare to develop

 * Prepare 8G/above TF card, USB-Serial cable, Ubuntu System
 * 12V/2A power adapter (without any peripherals, the power consumption of BPI-R4 Main Board will not exceed 10W in the most extreme cases. but you need to determine whether you need a higher power power adapter according to your own accessory usage)
 * Using your USB-Serial cable(3.3V TTL,Baud=115200) Connect to debug console on BPI-R4
   G=GND;  RX=BPI-R4 input;  TX=BPI-R4 output
 * Default IP address for LAN port: 192.168.1.1
 * User name/password: pi/bananapi ,root/bananapi.
 Or the user is root without a password.
 * WIFI: AP_MTK_MT7990_2G/AP_MTK_MT7990_5G/AP_MTK_MT7990_6G
    R4 DebugPort.png
 * BPI-R4 bootstrap and device select Jumper Setting
    R4-bootstrip.png
 1. All Jumper is "1", BPI-R4 will boot from SD card
    R4 SDBOOT.png
 2. SW3-A is "0" and SW3-B is "1" , BPI-R4 will boot from SPI NAND
    R4 NANDBOOT.png
 3. SW3-A is "1" and SW3-B is "0" , BPI-R4 will boot from eMMC
    R4 eMMCBOOT.png
 4. If the console said "system halt!", it means that the bootup storage does not cotain any OS

How to burn image to SD card

 A. Note: burn image to SD card on linux computer
   1.You could download latest image from our forum
 
   2.Install bpi-tools on your Ubuntu. If you can't access this URL or any other problems, please go to bpi-tools repo and install this tools manually.
   * apt-get install pv
   * curl -sL https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/bpi-tools/raw/master/bpi-tools | sudo -E bash
 
   3.After you download the image, insert your TF card into your Ubuntu
   * Execute "bpi-copy xxx.img /dev/sdx" to install image on your TF card
 
   4.After step 3, then you can insert your TF card into R4, and press power button to setup R4
 
 B. Note: burn image to SD card on windows computer
   Balena Etcher is an opensource GUI flash tool by Balena, Flash OS images to SDcard or USB drive.
   Click on "Flash from file" to select image. 
   Click on "Select target" to select USB device. 
   Click on "Flash!" Start burning.

 C. Change Boot Jumper to boot from SD, Enable SD Card Device.
  
 * Note: boot device select:  https://wiki.banana-pi.org/Getting_Started_with_BPI-R4#Prepare_to_develop
 * Note: please low level format the SD and clear all data of SD. it's very important.

How to burn image to onboard Nand

 Note: when you want to Update Nand device, Firstly Change boot switch to boot from SD device and insert one SD with SD boot Image, then after boot up,you need flash one nand image into nand device. Finally you change bootstrap to boot from Nand device.

 Before burning image into Nand, please prepare a USB disk. Let's take OpenWrt image (mtk-bpi-r4-NAND-20231030.img) for example, the steps are below:

 1. Copy Nand boot OpenWrt image(mtk-bpi-r4-NAND-20231030.img) to USB disk.
  
 2. Change boot switch Jumper, the board boot from SD device, then power up the board.
 
 3. Plug in USB disk to the board, and mount the USB to /mnt or other directory as follows: (you can skip mounting if it is mounted automatically)
    * mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt 
    * change your directory to the mounting point, here is : cd /mnt

 4. Execute following command to erase the whole Nand flash and copy image to nand device:
    * mtd erase /dev/mtd0
    * dd if=mtk-bpi-r4-NAND-20231030.img of=/dev/mtdblock0

 5. Power off BPI-R4 board, unplug u-disk driver, change bootstrap to boot from Nand device.
   * Note: Enable Nand device, boot strap is from Nand.

How to burn image to onboard eMMC

 Note: because SD card and EMMC device share one SOC's controller, it is necessary to switch to NAND startup and then burn the EMMC image into the EMMC. Finally, you will change the boot to boot from EMMC.

 Before burning image to eMMC, please prepare a USB disk. Let's take OpenWrt image (bl2_emmc-r4.img, mtk-bpi-r4-EMMC-20231030.img) for example, the steps are below:

 1. Copy EMMC boot OpenWrt image(bl2_emmc-r4.img, mtk-bpi-r4-EMMC-20231030.img) to USB disk, if the image is compressed please uncompress it before copying to USB disk.

 2. Change the switch jumper to Nand and start the motherboard from Nand.
    Note: Enable Nand device, boot strap is from Nand
 
 3. Plug in USB disk to the board, and mount the USB to /mnt or other directory as follows: (you can skip mounting if it is mounted automatically)
   * mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt 
   * change your directory to the mounting point, here is : cd /mnt
 
 4. Execute :
    * echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
    * dd if=bl2_emmc-r4.img of=/dev/mmcblk0boot0
    * dd if=mtk-bpi-r4-EMMC-20231030.img of=/dev/mmcblk0
    * mmc bootpart enable 1 1 /dev/mmcblk0
 
 5. Power off R4 board, remove u-disk driver, change bootstrap to boot from emmc device.
    * Note: Enable EMMC device, boot strap is from EMMC.
    * Note: boot device select:  https://wiki.banana-pi.org/Getting_Started_with_BPI-R4#Prepare_to_develop

Accessories

1)10G SFP Module

The SFP serdes speed of BPI-R4 is fixed at 10Gbps, so only SFP that support this can be used!

Usually the PIN6 of 10G SFP+ module is GND. After inserting the module, SFP_MOD_DEF0 will be pulled low, thereby turning on the SFP power supply.

Therefore, if this PIN of the module is not GND, 3.3V_SFP power will not be supplied!

1.1)10G SFP+ Copper Module

The temperature of this module is very high when used for a long time, It can reach 90℃ without a heat sink or cooling fan. Be careful to prevent burns!

4) Wi-Fi7 NIC

You can insert the BPI-R4-NIC into CN12 and CN14 at the bottom of BPI-R4-Main, and then fix it with two M2 screws.
The BPI-R4-NIC module requires 12V power supply, so the power supply on the BPI-R4-Main must be turned on before powering on (SW4 is turned to the "ON" position, and the 12V LED will lights up when power on)
NOTE:The 12V power supply will be supplied to the BPI-R4-NIC through PIN6/28/48 of the miniPCI socket. When plugging in other modules, be sure to turn off SW4 if you cannot confirm whether the module can withstand 12V.
