| − | === Overview ===
| |
| − | ----
| |
| − | | |
| − | This page is a starting point for all products of the IGEP0020 family such IGEPv2 Board.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This guide is divided in three different chapters:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * '''Getting started''': A basic tutorial about how to connect and boot your IGEP0020
| |
| − | * '''What can I do?''': An extensive article to setup the main peripherals of IGEP0020
| |
| − | * '''Start developing''': Once you have successfully followed the previous tutorials, you are ready to start developing with IGEP Technology. Here you will find some basic tips tricks about how to start with it.
| |
| − | | |
| − | At the top-right corner of this pages you will find a navigation box with this links.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | === Getting started ===
| |
| − | ----
| |
| − | This getting started guide describes '''how to boot IGEP020''' and also gives some '''basic instructions''' about how to connect some peripherals.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | For further information about this board, there exist other sections where you can find specific and extended contents, in-depth description, valuables web links, etc.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If that is your case, visit the '''[[:Category:IGEP0020|main page of IGEP0020]]''' or check the categories at the IGEP Community Wiki.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | === Preinstalled software ===
| |
| − | ----
| |
| − | By default, '''all brand new IGEP Processor Boards have a firmware installed''' on its flash memory.
| |
| − | | |
| − | That means that if you power up your board it will run a Linux distribution provided and installed by ISEE.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This distribution consists on a '''minimal Linux-based distribution''' with a lite X Window System and GNOME Mobile based applications created with '''Poky Platform Builder'''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | '''Linux distributions'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | In this tutorial, we are going to use the pre-installed software in your IGEP0020, that is the Poky Linux. But if you wish, you can always update with a new or a different distribution.
| |
| − | | |
| − | We are now going to introduce the main components of the preinstalled software of your IGEP0020:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Bootloaders:
| |
| − | * Kernel:
| |
| − | * Root File System:
| |
| − | * Kernel Modules:
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | If you are familiar with Linux Kernel and distributions, you can check out the '''[[:Category:Software distributions|Software distributions]]''' category at the IGEP Community Wiki to get many other distributions for your IGEP0020.
| |

| − | === Setting up ===
| |
| − | ----
| |
| − | First of all, you can begin to '''add peripherals'''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In this tutorial we are going to learn how to connect and the main usage of:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * the serial cable
| |
| − | * a monitor
| |
| − | * a USB keyboard and a mouse
| |
| − | * a network cable.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Do NOT power up your board yet.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | '''Monitor'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | IGEP0020 has a '''DVI-D interface''' where you can connect a '''HDMI connector to a monitor'''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) is a video standard interface designed to provide very high visual quality on digital display devices such as flat panel LCD computer displays and digital projectors. It is partially compatible with the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) standard in digital mode (DVI-D), and VGA in analog mode (DVI-A).
| |
| − | | |
| − | You will need a cable with '''male DVI-D connector''' for the monitor, and '''male HDMI connector''' from IGEP0020.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Note that your monitor should be able to support 1024 x 768 @ 60 Hz, which is the default resolution in the preinstalled software.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | '''Serial'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | In the preinstalled software, the serial port is configured as a '''Debug interface'''. That means that if you connect an external device to the serial port you will be able to see the '''Linux Kernel traces''', as the system boots.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Furthermore, you will be able to access IGEP0020 with a '''serial client console''' in your host device (for example, a PC with Linux, Windows, etc.)
| |
| − | | |
| − | In this tutorial, we are going to test this feature by connecting an '''AT/Everex Cable''' to the '''10-pin serial header''' on IGEP0020 and a '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_modem null modem] DB9 male-male''' serial cable between the board and your host machine
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | [[Image:DSC 0177.JPG|thumb|550px|right|'''Serial''': AT/Everex Cable connected to the 10-pin serial header on IGEP0020. '''Network''': Ethernet cable]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | To communicate with IGEP0020 via Serial port you have to connect your host machine to the serial debug port in your IGEP0020.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Once you have set the cable, then you have to run a serial console, or any program that can interact with the serial port in your host machine, such Minicom, PuTTy (Linux, Windows), Terminal (Windows), etc.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * If you don't know how to set up your serial cable, refer to the following article: '''[[How_to_setup_the_IDC10_cable|How to setup the IDC10 cable]]'''. Also, if you do not have Serial port in your host machine you might need a USB to Serial converter to communicate via this port.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * If you are not familiar with a serial console, refer to this page, an extended article about '''[[Using serial debug port to communicate]]'''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | '''Audio IN/OUT'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | External Audio input devices, such as a powered microphone or the audio output of a PC or MP3 player, can be connected to the via a 3.5mm jack (Audio IN).
| |
| − | | |
| − | An external Audio output device, such as external stereo powered speakers, can be connected to the BASE0010 via a 3.5mm jack (Audio OUT).
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | '''Keyboard/Mouse'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | In IGEP0020 you might need a powered hub to connect to most USB.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Connect the USB hub to the USB host connector in your IGEP0020, and then plug your keyboard and mouse into the USB hub.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Only USB 2.0 devices will work in IGEP0020, so if connect any USB mouse 1.0 into the USB host connector without using a USB hub 2.0, it will not work.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | '''Network'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | IGEP0020 comes with one 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet ports. Plug an Ethernet cable between IGEP0020 and your host machine (or any other network device with ethernet connectivity).
| |
| − | | |
| − | In this tutorial, we will use ethernet to access IGEP0020 with IP configuration, send files, etc.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | === Power up ===
| |
| − | ----
| |
| − | | |
| − | Once you have connected the peripherals '''you can apply power''' to your IGEP0020 (5V DCC).
| |
| − | | |
| − | * '''Serial''': If you have connected the '''serial debug port''', you will see the system traces as the board is starting up. Finally you will see the boot prompt asking for login. (read the next chapter of this tutorial)
| |
| − | | |
| − | * '''LED's''': You will also see a few LED's flash in IGEP0020 during the system boot(the sequence will be different based on software version).
| |
| − | | |
| − | * '''Monitor''': Finally, if you connected the DVI-D signal (with HDMI connector) to a monitor, the desktop of the preinstalled software will appear on the screen and you will be able to use the mouse and the keyboard, if connected.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * '''USB devices''': You will be able to use your keyboard and mouse and 'play' with this little distribution.
