=== Is the external wifi antenna easy to install? Where can I acquire a compatible external antenna? ===
=== Are the sources for the xloader, uBoot and kernel supplied with IGEPv2 board available? ===
All of them are available at the Official [http://git.igepisee.es biz GIT repositories]. You need registered user.

== IGEPv2 EXPANSION Board Software related questions ==
=== Which x-loader, u-boot and Linux kernel does IGEPv2 EXPANSION board use? ===
You can download software from the Official [http://git.igepisee.es/biz| GIT repositories] and then you can follow the IGEP0020 IGEPv2 steps in [http://labs.igep.es/index.php/[The_Linux_kernel| Howto the Linux kernel]].<br>  <br>
== IGEP COM MODULE Hardware related questions ==
=== Which revision is my differences are between IGEP COM MODULE board? and IGEPv2 ===
*[[IGEPv2]] is a start board for testing purposes that you can use for testing the possibilites of the IGEP MODULE RevD: They were sold on 2010-4Q (silkscreen: "'''IGEPv3 MODULE RD'''") *IGEP MODULE RevE: They were sold on 2011 (silkscreen: "'''IGEPv3 MODULE RE'''")Technology and for developing your own applications.<br>
You can also test this technology with the [[IGEPv2 EXPANSION]], which you can instantly attach to the IGEPv2 and test even more features and interficies.<br>
=== Which differences are between IGEP MODULE board and IGEPv2 Board === [[:Category:IGEP0020|IGEPv2 Board]] is a start board for testing purposes that you can use for testing the possibilites of the IGEP Platform boards and for developing your own applications.<br>  You can also test this technology with the [[:Category:IGEP0022#IGEP0022|IGEPv2 EXPANSION]], which you can instantly attach to the IGEPv2 Board and test even more features and interficies.<br>  Once you have tested and checked all the IGEP&nbsp;Platform Technollgy possibilites you can use the [[:Category:IGEP0030|IGEP COM MODULE]], which consists on a single mini-board with all the IGEPv2 Board capabilities but with just a few of them implemented. That means you can create your own expansion board with any peripheral you want and attach it to your product, or you can contact with the [http://www.iseebcnisee.combiz/ ISEE team] (Integration Software Electronic Engineering) where you can ask for a customized board design with your own specifications.<br>
<br>
Yes, it is possible to power standalone IGEP MODULE boards (without any baseboard plugged).<br> <span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">'''<span style="font-style: italic;">NOTE</span>: DON'T POWER IGEP MODULE through USB OTG and ANY base board AT SAME TIME'''</span>.<br>

=== What is the maximun power consumption? ===
Default configuration will use the internal shared wifi/BT omni-antenna.<br>
But on IGEP COM MODULE boards you can hardware-hack the board and disconnect the internal antenna to populate U.FL connector for pigtail and external antena:<br>
<pre>The J2 is a "HRS (HIROSE) - U.FL-R-SMT(01) - RECEPTACLE, SMT, U.FL " connector
Check your revision case:<br>
*IGEP COM MODULE&nbsp;revision D&nbsp;boards do not have the internal antenna populated, but there connector for the external antenna is actually installed.<br> *IGEP&nbsp;COM MODULE&nbsp;revision E boards have the internal antenna.<br>
You can get an external antenna at the [http://shop.iseebcnisee.com biz ISEE online shop].<br>
