The required [[How do I edit my kernel command line|kernel command line]] option here is omapfb.mode followed by the desired resolution, make sure to select a video mode compatible with your monitor
 
 
 
For example:
 
 
 
omapdss.def_disp=dvi omapfb.mode=dvi:1024x768-16@60
 
 
 
Note that you could connect both a VGA monitor and a DVI-D monitor and see the same image, as long as the video mode is compatible with both monitors.

= How to use Telit Modem  =
 
 
 
The IGEP0022 expansion board provides a Telit [http://telit.com/en/products/gsm-gprs.php?p_ac=show&p=47 GE865] GSM/GPRS&nbsp;modem which is connected to the OMAP via some GPIO pins and UART 2.<br>
 
 
 
Here you have the official manuals from the manufacturer's webpage:<br>
 
 
 
*[http://telit.com/module/infopool/download.php?id=1666 Telit GE865-QUAD Hardware User Guide]<br>
 
*[http://telit.com/module/infopool/download.php?id=522 Telit Modules Software User Guide]<br>
 
 
 
<br>
 
 
 
Here there are a few instructions in order to introduce the Telit modem.<br>
 
 
 
If this is your first time accessing Telit Modem, you must add the following line at the kernel file (igep.ini) in order to enable GE865 support&nbsp;:
 
<pre>buddy.modem=yes</pre>
 
<br>
 
 
 
Now its time to power up your modem. You may read the official manufacturer [http://telit.com/module/infopool/download.php?id=1666 hardware user guide], where there is a complete explanation about the sequence.<br>
 
 
 
In IGEP0022, the modem is connected to 3 GPIO pins from the OMAP, which are: &lt;omap_pin_name (modem_function)&gt;
 
 
 
*GPIO_140 (Reset)
 
*GPIO_141 (On_Off)
 
*GPIO_156 (PWRMON)<br>
 
 
 
You can power up your modem using the following sequence:
 
 
 
(Note: the following instructions are correctly 'toggled' do to pull-up resistors. Refer to schematics at the official [http://igep.es/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=99&Itemid=129&dir=%2Fvar%2Fwww%2Fvhosts%2Figep.es%2Fhttpdocs%2Fdownloads%2F01-ISEE_Products%2FIGEPv2_EXPANSION%2FHW_Schematics&download_file=%2Fvar%2Fwww%2Fvhosts%2Figep.es%2Fhttpdocs%2Fdownloads%2F01-ISEE_Products%2FIGEPv2_EXPANSION%2FHW_Schematics%2FIGEP.0022-EXP_BOARD_SCH_rev_b3.pdf IGEP0022 Hardware Manual] from ISEE)
 
<pre>echo 0 &gt; /sys/class/gpio/gpio140/value
 
echo 1 &gt; /sys/class/gpio/gpio141/value
 
sleep 1
 
echo 0 &gt; /sys/class/gpio/gpio141/value
 
</pre>
 
Once the modem is on, you can interact with it via UART 2. You can use Microcom to comunicate with it from the serial debug console:
 
<pre>microcom -s 115200 /dev/ttyS1</pre>
 
(Note:&nbsp;GE865 has auto baud rate detection, so you can use a different speed)<br>
 
 
 
To check the modem status use the command:<br>
 
<pre>at</pre>
 
Answer should be OK.<br>
 
 
 
(Note: correcting syntax with 'backspace' may cause error in a serial command if you are not writing the command at first take)
 
 
 
In order to use your GSM/GPRS you should insert a valid SIM card to the SIM card reader of your IGEP0022 expansion board.
 
 
 
Now unlock it by inserting your SIM&nbsp;card PIN&nbsp;number. Use the command:<br>
 
<pre>at+cpin=&lt;PIN&gt;</pre>
 
If you correctly inserted the PIN&nbsp;number, the answer should be OK.
 
 
 
(Note: If you fail more than 3 times, your SIM&nbsp;card will lock and you will have to insert PUK number.)
 
 
 
Now you are ready to use the GSM/GPS modem.
 
 
 
== Examples ==
 
 
 
If you successfully '''followed the the previous instructions''', you are ready to test the GSM/GPRS&nbsp;modem. Here are some examples of simple&nbsp;commands:
 
 
 
You can check the complete list of AT&nbsp;commands at the official manufacturer [http://telit.com/module/infopool/download.php?id=522 software user guide].
 
 
 
=== Making a phone call<br>  ===
 
 
 
Use the instruction:
 
<pre>atd &lt;number_to_call&gt;
 
</pre>
 
=== Sending a SMS<br>  ===
 
 
 
There are so many ways in this modem to send a message. Here you have a simple example. Use the instruction:
 
<pre>at+cmgs="&lt;destination_number&gt;"
 
&gt; &lt;insert_here_your_text_message&gt;
 
</pre>
 
When you are ready to send your message use Ctrl+Z to send it.
 
 
 
If you want to cancel or restart the message press ESC.<br>

= How to use EEPROM  =
 
 
 
The IGEP0022 expansion board provides an [http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc5156.pdf AT24C01B] serial EEPROM memory which is connected to the OMAP via I2C.<br>
 
 
 
You can use easily simple reads/writes to access to the eeprom:
 
 
 
echo "hello world!" &gt; /sys/devices/platform/i2c_omap.2/i2c-2/2-0050/eeprom
 
cat /sys/devices/platform/i2c_omap.2/i2c-2/2-0050/eeprom
 
 
 
Or read/write from userspace using i2c-tools:
 
 
 
i2cget &lt;bus&gt; &lt;chip&gt; &lt;register&gt;
 
i2cset &lt;bus&gt; &lt;chip&gt; &lt;register&gt; &lt;value&gt;
 
 
 
For example, the following writes the value 0x22 to register 0x10 of device 0x50 on i2c bus 2:
 
 
 
i2cset -f -y 2 0x50 0x10 0x22
 
i2cget -f -y 2 0x50 0x10
 
 
 
See also: i2dump(8), i2cget(8) and i2cset(8) man page
 
 
 
= Using CAN bus  =
 
 
 
The IGEP0022 expansion board provides a CAN&nbsp;interface using MCP2515.<br>
 
 
 
Several tools are provided by socketCAN to use this controller:
 
 
 
*candump: dump traffic on a CAN network.
 
*cansend: simple command line tool to send CAN-frames via CAN_RAW sockets.
 
*cangen: CAN frames generator for testing purpose.
 
*canplayer: send CAN frames from a file to a CAN interface.
 
 
 
In order to test the CAN&nbsp;interface you can connect IGEP0022 to a CAN device or network or to another IGEP0022 board.<br>
 
 
 
In the last case, you have to connect the two boards like this:<br>
 
 
 
  pin number)                    (pin number
 
          1) O-----X    X-----O (1
 
IGEP0022  2) O----------------O (2  IGEP0022
 
Board 1  3) O----------------O (3  Board 2
 
          4) O----------------O (4
 
 
 
Now you can set up the interface (on all boards when using multiple IGEP0022 <span lang="en" class="short_text" id="result_box"><span class="hps" title="Click for alternate translations">connected to a CAN&nbsp;network simultaneously)</span></span>:<br>
 
 
 
/sbin/ip link set can0 up type can bitrate 125000
 
 
 
If you want to receive CAN&nbsp;data, use:
 
 
 
candump can0
 
 
 
If you want to send CAN data, use:
 
 
 
cansend can0 123#AABBCCDD
 
cansend can0 123#R
 
cansend can0 1F334455#1122334455667788
 
cansend can0 1F334455#R
 
 
 
On the receiver side, you must see the following messages:
 
 
 
can0  123  [4] AA BB CC DD
 
can0  123  [0] remote request
 
can0  1F334455  [8] 11 22 33 44 55 66 77 88
 
can0  1F334455  [0] remote request
 
 
 
Switch roles and try it again
