====Ubuntu On Emmc====
+
====How to burn image to onboard eMMC====
−
   1. If you want to install image on EMMC, follow these steps：
+
   Before burning image to eMMC, please prepare a SD card with flashed bootable image and a USB disk. Let's take OpenWrt image (mtk-bpi-r64-preloader-emmc.bin,2020-04-09-OpenWRT-mtk-bpi-r64-EMMC.img) for example, the steps are below:
−
   * Burn an image to sd card, and set up R64 with sd card.
+
   Note: You can download the .bin file from github: https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/BPI-R64-openwrt/tree/master/staging_dir/target-aarch64_cortex-a53_musl/image
−
   * Copy the image which name contains "xxx-emmc-xxx" to U disk.
+
 
−
   * mount U disk to R64, then use bpi-copy to burn image to Emmc. 
+
  1. Insert the flashed SD card and power on to start the board.(the image on the SD card can be OpenWrt or other linux OS like ubuntu...)
 +
 
 +
   2. Copy eMMC bootable OpenWrt image(mtk-bpi-r64-preloader-emmc.bin,2020-04-09-OpenWRT-mtk-bpi-r64-EMMC.img) to USB disk, if the image is compressed please uncompress it before copying to USB disk.
 +
 
 +
   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
  
−
    bpi-copy  <XXX.img.zip>
+
  4. Execute following command to enable and copy image to eMMC:
 +
    * echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
 +
    * dd if=2020-04-09-OpenWRT-mtk-bpi-r64-EMMC.img of=/dev/mmcblk0
 +
    * dd if=mtk-bpi-r64-preloader-emmc.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0boot0
 +
    * mmc bootpart enable 1 1  /dev/mmcblk0
  
−
   * After this, reboot R64.
+
   5. Shutdown, remove SD card and USB disk, and restart the board from eMMC.
−
  * Remove SD & power on.

How to burn image to SD card

 1.You could download latest image from our forum
 * Here is the example image link: 
 
 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 R64, and press power button to setup R64

How to burn image to onboard eMMC

 Before burning image to eMMC, please prepare a SD card with flashed bootable image and a USB disk. Let's take OpenWrt image (mtk-bpi-r64-preloader-emmc.bin,2020-04-09-OpenWRT-mtk-bpi-r64-EMMC.img) for example, the steps are below:
 Note: You can download the .bin file from github: https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/BPI-R64-openwrt/tree/master/staging_dir/target-aarch64_cortex-a53_musl/image

 1. Insert the flashed SD card and power on to start the board.(the image on the SD card can be OpenWrt or other linux OS like ubuntu...)

 2. Copy eMMC bootable OpenWrt image(mtk-bpi-r64-preloader-emmc.bin,2020-04-09-OpenWRT-mtk-bpi-r64-EMMC.img) to USB disk, if the image is compressed please uncompress it before copying to USB disk.

 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 enable and copy image to eMMC:
    * echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
    * dd if=2020-04-09-OpenWRT-mtk-bpi-r64-EMMC.img of=/dev/mmcblk0
    * dd if=mtk-bpi-r64-preloader-emmc.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0boot0
    * mmc bootpart enable 1 1   /dev/mmcblk0

 5. Shutdown, remove SD card and USB disk, and restart the board from eMMC.

GPIO

40 Pins Definition

R64 gpio 40.jpg

GPIO Control

  • echo xxx > /sys/class/gpio/export
  • echo in/out > /sys/class/gpio/gpioxxx/direction
  • echo 0/1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpioxxx/value

Check the base gpio, you could see mine is 409

R64 gpio base.jpg

For example: if you want to change gpio 22 as out highlevel, you need input commands like this：

  • echo 431（22+409） > /sys/class/gpio/export
  • echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio431/direction
  • echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio431/value

PWM Control

  • echo x >/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/export
  • echo 200000 >/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwmx/period
  • echo 100000 >/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwmx/duty_cycle
  • echo 1 >/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwmx/enable

GMAC

Use iperf3 to test gmac

1. On PC Terminal:

  • Execute "iperf3 -s"

2. On R64 console:

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

BT & BLE on R64

R64 BT Architectural

R64 BT Arch.jpg

  • BLE on R64
  • Input Command "btmw-test", you will enter to "btmw_test_cli" command line

R64 BT cli.jpg

  • Here are some example commands：
    • MW_GAP name 7622_BT /*rename bt device*/
    • MW_GAP info /*check local BT device info*/
    • MW_GATTC scan /* start ble scan*/
    • MW_GATTC stop_scan /* stop ble scan*/

R64 LAN Function

  • LAN eth interface is eth2, use "ifconfig eth2 up" to enable it.
  • Config the ip, "ifconfig eth2 192.168.1.1".
 R64 Lan test 1.jpg
  • Config your dhcp server, "vim /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf", add these configurations.
 R64 Lan test 2.jpg
  • Start dhcp server, "dhcpd eth2".
 R64 Lan test 3.jpg
  • then config iptables and set package forward.
    • Add "net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" to "/etc/sysctl.conf"
    • "/sbin/sysctl -p" to make forward work
    • "iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.1/24 -o eth3 -j MASQUERADE"

Ap mode on R64

  • Find "mt_wifi.ko" and insmod it.
