There are 5 serial ports, 2 RS232, 3 RS485. For the device node in system, please reference the table 4-1:

Table 4-1 serial port device node

You can test the serial port by using the HT_Serial Application in the desktop, like in figure 4-8:

Figure 4-8 HT_Serial Test

Figure 4-9 HT_Serial Test

There are two-channel CAN buses, the system has integrated the CAN units. You can use them to test CAN, you also can use the HT application to test them. But you must add one 120ohm resistor between CAN_H and CAN_L on one of the two boards. Like in figure 4-10:

Figure 4-10 CAN Connect

Here is an example how to test CAN by using can units:
• Set the bit-rate to 50Kbits/sec with triple sampling using the following command

# ip  link  set  can0  type  can  bitrate  50000  triple-sampling  on
OR
# canconfig  can0  bitrate  50000  ctrlmode  triple-sampling  on

• Bring up the device using the command

# ip  link  set  can0  up
OR
# canconfig  can0  start

• Transfer packets
a. Transmit 8 bytes with standard packet id number as 0x10

# cansend  can0  -i  0x10  0x11  0x22  0x33  0x44  0x55  0x66  0x77  0x88

b. Transmit 8 bytes with extended packet id number as 0x800

# cansend  can0  -i  0x800  0x11  0x22  0x33  0x44  0x55  0x66  0x77  0x88 -e

c. Transmit 20 packets of 8 bytes each with same extended packet id number as 0xFFFFF

# cansend  can0  -i  0xFFFFF  0x11  0x22  0x33  0x44  0x55  0x66  0x77  0x88 -e  --loop=20

• Bring down the device

# ip  link  set  can0  down
OR
# canconfig  can0  stop

Use the HT application to test CAN. You need use two Chipsee boards to test it. Connect two boards like in figure 4-10, and select the CAN port “can0” or “can1” at the same time, then click “Canstart” at the same time on both boards. The CAN part in the HT application is like in figure 4-11:

Figure 4-11 CAN

There are 8 GPIOs, check the GPIO chapter in Chipsee_U7EC-Manual – V1.0.pdf to know the detail port define. You also can check the following table 4-2

Table 4-2 CS10600F070 – V1.0 P23 Port

Use the following command to test GPIO easily:
• Set GPIO1 high

# echo 1 > /dev/chipsee-gpio1

• Set GPIO2 low

# echo 0 > /dev/chipsee-gpio2

• Check GPIO5 vlue

# cat /dev/chipsee-gpio5

You also can use the GPIO part of the HT application to test the GPIO. Before you test, you need to connect the output gpio and input gpio, like pin 3 — pin 7 / pin 4 — pin8 / pin 5 — pin9 / pin6 — pin10. Don’t forget to give outside power to the pin 1 and pin2. You can use the outside 24V input power. Then click “SetAllHigh” or “SetAllLow” to check the right light status. You also can set output gpio high or low respectively. Then check the right input gpio status. Like in figure 4-12:

Figure 4-12 GPIO Test

Control the buzzer easily, with the following command:
• Enable the buzzer

# echo 1 >/dev/buzzer

• Disable the buzzer

# echo 0 >/dev/buzzer

You also can use the HT application to test it, like in figure 4-13:

Figure 4-13 Buzzer

In this chapter, you can learn how to set up the QT development environment, and develop the first QT application on Chipsee Boards.

Reference 6.1.2 Install SDK to install IMX SDK and install some recommends packages:

$ sudo  apt-get  install  autoconf  libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev

Get psplash.tar.gz from DVD/Linux+QT5/Tools/ and extract it

$ sudo tar zxvf psplash.tar.gz

Prepare a PNG file, such as chipsee.png

$ sudo cp chipsee.png psplash/
$ sudo cd psplash

Setting environment

$ source /opt/fsl-imx-x11/3.14.52-1.1.1/environment-setup-cortexa9hf-vfp-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi

Generate header file and modify the psplash.c, then config and mak:

$ ./make-image-header.sh chipsee.png POKY  //you will find a new file named chipsee-img.h
$ vi psplash.c  // replace the header file name (psplash-poky-img.h) in psplash.c with chipsee-img.h
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make  // you will generate the file psplash

Then you will find the file psplash, replace the one in rootfs /usr/bin/psplash. Reboot your board you will find you have change the psplash.
You can remove the file in rootfs /etc/init.d/psplash.sh to disable it.
If you want to rotate the psplash screen, just do the following in the system:

# echo 180 > /etc/rotation   // rotate  180  angle
# echo 0 > /etc/rotation	    // reset to default.
