Introduction

Overview: BPI-M2+ Ubuntu linux
Overview:BPI-M2+ Debian linux

Banana Pi M2+ is mini size development board that offers great computing performance in an ultra portable form factor.It is a 65mm*65mm fantastic mini size board with Allwinner H series chips. It comes with different versions but share the same interfaces.


BPI-M2+ H3

Key Features

  • Quad-core 1.2GHz Cortex-A7 H3
  • 1GB DDR3
  • 8GB eMMC onboard
  • WiFi and BlueTooth onboard
  • 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet Port

Development

Let's get start to develop on BPI-M2P, see amazing things happen.

Basic Development

Prepare to develop

 1.Prepare 8G/above TF card, USB-Serial interface, PC with Ubuntu System
 2.Using your USB-Serial Connect debug console on M2P

Load your first image on M2P

 1.You could download latest image from our forum
 * Here is the example forum thread link: http://forum.banana-pi.org/t/banana-pi-bpi-m2p-new-image-release-ubuntu-16-04-v1-1/5719
 2.Install bpi-tools on your Ubuntu
 * 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 M2P, and press power button setup M2P.

Advanced Development

How to build kernel

How to build uboot

How to create a image

  • Prepare a SD card which have installed system(Ubuntu/Respbian/..)
  • Boot your SD card with M2P, after M2P finish starting, copy your files and config your system, then poweroff M2P. [If you don't want to config your system, you can skip this step]
  • Plug your SD card in PC(which is running Linux), "cd /media", then "ln -s <your account> pi"
  • Execute "bpi-migrate -c bpi-m2p.conf -c ubuntu-mate-from-sd.conf -d /dev/sdx"
  • Then you could get your own image now

GMAC

  • Use iperf3 to test gmac

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 M2P

Driver code:

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 -B -dd -i wlan0 -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.

Guvcview

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

  • 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 M2P

WringPi

RGB 1602 LCD

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

WringPi 1602 LCD.png

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
