= Overview =
This first is the 1/3 chapter describes '''how to boot of IGEP COM PROTON''' and also gives some '''basic instructions''' about how to connect some peripheralsTutorial Guide.
In this first chapter, we will learn '''how to connect IGEP COM PROTON''' and '''how to log into IGEP COM PROTON via USB'''.
=Requirements == Setting up ===----
In the first chapter of this tutorial we are going to usethe following peripherals:
* an IGEP COM PROTON* An USB A type plug to Cable mini -B type plug* a computer USB Hub with Windows or Linux installed on itexternal power supply* A PC
Do NOT power = Getting started === Power up your board yet.IGEP COM PROTON ==
[[Image:IGEP_COM_PROTON_with_HUB.JPG|right|200px]]IGEP COM PROTON for standalone operation (without expansion boards) can be supplied using a 5V DC through USB 2.0 OTG connector. Use an USB Hub with external power supply.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>

The on-board '''HS USB OTG port''' is used as the default '''power input for {{Table/IGEP COM PROTON standalone''' operating mode. First of all, connect IGEP COM PROTON to your machine via the on-board USB OTG port with '''a USB cable''' (USB A type plug to mini B type plug). Connect IGEP COM PROTON to your machine. It will power up. Technology Devices|Tech_Family=== Connect to IGEP COM PROTON via USB OTG connector ===---- {| cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" border="1" align="center" width="100%" style="text-align{#lst:Template: left;"Links|-IGEP_COM_PROTON_Tech_Family}}| bgcolorTech_ID="{{#cccccc" |'''Overview'''|-| 1) '''Install a SSH client such PuTTy''' 2) '''Connect via USB Ethernet Gadget/RNDIS driver''', SSHlst:Template: root@192.168.7.2Links|IGEP_COM_PROTON_Tech_ID}You can log into IGEP COM PROTON via many '''interfaces with network connectivity''', such usb-ethernet gadget.. and many others (when connected to an IGEP Expansion Board). In this section of this tutorial we are going to '''connect via USB Ethernet gadget'''. This feature allows you to have an IP connection over USB.  IGEP COM PROTON uses this functionality to allow users to log via SSH. You can use this feature to interact with the IGEP Processor operating system [host] by typing commands in a client machine (your PC, for example) to perform specific tasks in IGEP COM PROTON. You can communicate and open a debug session via many other interfaces such Serial port, Ethernet, Wifi, USB Ethernet Gadget, etc. (if available in an IGEP Expansion Board, for example). Therefore, you will be able to access IGEP COM PROTON from your client device (for example, a PC with Linux, Windows, etc.)  The pre-installed software in IGEP0030 configures the USB interface with a static IP: 192.168.7.2''Note: You will be able to change it later'' Now, pick the right section, depending on the Operating System you are using:  ==== Linux Configuration ==== You should have the usbnet module available for your Linux kernel. On most distributions, this is the case by default. If this is not the case for your distribution, you will need to enable USB networking support in the kernel. If you build your own kernel then you want 'CDC Ethernet support' in USB Network adaptors.  *'''Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx''' In the file /etc/network/interfaces, you should add a section which looks like this:   auto usb0 iface usb0 inet static address 192.168.7.1 network 192.168.7.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.7.255 gateway 192.168.7.1 Connect to the board using ssh   ssh -l root 192.168.7.2  ==== Windows configuration ====  *'''Windows 7''' Follow this tutorial: http://robosavvy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=28788  *'''Windows XP''' 1. During the first seconds the module is recognized as OMAP3430. Avoid the installation of this device and wait until ''RNDIS/Ethernet gadget'' is detected by the operating system.  2. The following driver INF file from the Gumstix Project works under Windows XP. [http://www.davehylands.com/linux/gumstix/usbnet/linux.inf <span class="s1">http://www.davehylands.com/linux/gumstix/usbnet/linux.inf</span>]  3. In ''Control Panel/Network Connections'' and after driver installation set up the TCP/IP properties of the ''Local Network Connection'' (''Linux USB Ethernet/RNDIS Gadget'') as follow:<br> <pre>IP address 192.168.7.1 Netmask 255.255.255.0 Gateway 192.168.7.1 </pre>  '''''Thanks to Iñigo Lazkanotegi from Tecnalia (Donostia - San Sebastián) for this contribution.''''' Now you must run any serial console that allows SSH such PuTTy (Linux, Windows). You can download it from its official page at: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html Then, run the '''SSH client''' and start a SSH session to connect to the host (IGEP COM PROTON) from the client (your PC): [[Image:Putty ssh.png|center]]  # Select the '''SSH''' at connection type.# Next insert the '''IP address of the target'''. In this case, the IGEP0030 default IP (192.168.7.2).# Ensure that the port is set to '''22''', the default for SSH communications.# Finally, push the '''Open button''' to start the SSH session.  If everything goes right, you will be able to access to IGEP COM PROTON console from your PC via USB Ethernet gadget. {{Navigation/IGEP Technology Devices Guides/Next Step
