{{Message/Information Message|title=TITLE|message=This How-To was tested under Kernel 2.6.35.y but content are valid for Kernel 2.6.37.y}}
= Overview =
This How-To is meant to be a starting point for people to learn to set up UART2 for IGEPv2 J990 connector as quickly and easily as possible. In this how-to, we use [http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-m/headless/final/linaro-m-headless-tar-20101108-2.tar.gz Linaro Headless] with [[Linux Kernel 2.6.35.y|Kernel 2.6.35.y]]. This How-To is focused for revisions RC1/RC3/RC4/RC6 (WIFI/BT versions). <br>
More information about UART: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UART UARTUniversal_asynchronous_receiver/transmitter <span style="text-decoration: underline;">here</span>] and [[How to use UARTs|here]].'''<br>'''
There are two three modes to configure UART2 in J990: via user space (fast modefirst way), editing only igep.ini (second way) or editing kernel source and compile it (slow modethird way).  '''NOTE: '''UART2 in j990 connector has CMOS voltages (0V-1V8).
= Feedback and Contributing =
At any point, if you see a mistake you can contribute to this How-To.<br>
= Fast ModeFirst way<br> = First way: this mode has an issue, when your system reboot or shutdown you will need to configure again. Using user space to configure mux and disable bluetooth. <br>
Fast Mode, set up UART2 until system reboot or halt. Using space to configure mux and disabling bluethoot. Default kernel binaries and source have disabled TWL4030 PCM voice interface output pins to high impedance, otherwise this module forces the level of mcbsp3_fsx and mcbsp3_clkx pins. To make sure, go to ~/sound/soc/codecs/twl4030.c file already read:
<pre> 0x04, /* REG_VOICE_IF (0xF) */</pre>
=== Configure IGEP ===
Make sure that If you use a IGEPv2 Expansion is disabledBoard, go to igep.ini file: <pre>;buddy=igep0022 </pre> Log with root user via SSH or Serial cable.don't use modem for this tutorial<br>

You can not use UART2_CTS(4) AND UART2_RTS(10) which are usually referred to as hardware flow control. For example you can use RS232 but not RS485 peripheral.

'''NOTE: '''Starting from Kernel 2.6.37.y, ttySx are named ttyOx.
Connect UART2_TX with UART2_RX. Use minicom to prove UART2 (/dev/ttyS1)&nbsp;:<br>
<pre>minicom -D /dev/ttyS1</pre>
or
<pre>microcom /dev/ttyS1 </pre>
If you write characters and see the echo on the screen, you configure correctly UART.
