Starterkit Interfaces and Functions
CAN
CAN configuration
DIP switch S2 is used to configure the CAN interfaces CAN0 and CAN1.
Function | S2-1 | S2-2 |
---|---|---|
CAN-Bus not terminated | OFF | OFF |
not defined (illegal state) | OFF | ON |
not defined (illegal state) | ON | OFF |
CAN-Bus terminated with 120 Ohm | ON | ON |

Ethernet
U-Boot
The IP configuration can be done statically or by a DHCP server in the network.
IP configuration via DHCP
For a configuration via a DHCP server, use the dhcp
command in U-Boot.
Static IP configuration For a static IP configuration the following, U-Boot environment variables must be set:
setenv ipaddr <ipaddr> (e.g.: setenv ipaddr 192.168.100.111) setenv netmask <netmask> (e.g.: setenv netmask 255.255.255.0)
Linux
The configuration files for the eth0 interface and the eth1 interface are located in /lib/systemd/network/ these configuration files can be altered to customize the default interface configuration. A documentation of the configuration files can be found here.
For a temporary static configuration the ip command can be used, below some useful ip commands are listed:
Activate a specific interface
e.g. eth0
ip link set eth0 up
Disable a specific interace
e.g. eth0
ip link set eth0 down
Show ip address for a specific interface
e.g. eth0
ip addr show eth0
Show statistic for a specific interface
e.g. eth0
ip -s link show eth0
Set ip address for a specific interface
e.g. eth0
ip addr add 192.168.1.100/24 dev eth0
Show statistic of all interfaces
ip -s link
Set default gateway for a specific interfaces
e.g. set gateway ip 192.168.1.1 for eth0
ip route add default via 192.168.1.1 dev eth0
If a DHCP server is available in the network environment the ip configuration can be received from it. To do so execute the udhcpc
command, by default eth0 is used.
To configure another interface via dhcp the parameter -i
followed by the interface name e.g. eth1 must be given.
e.g. eth1
udhcpc -i eth1
I2C
An overview of the onboard i2c devices is available here
U-Boot
Select i2c bus device
i2c dev 0
Show all devices connected to the i2c bus currently selected:
i2c probe
Linux
Detect all devices connected to a i2c bus:
i2cdetect 0
RTC
To set the hardware clock to the actual time and date use the following commands:
date -s [YYYY.]MM.DD-hh:mm[:ss] hwclock -w
Temperature Sensors
USB
With lsusb
you can see all connected usb devices. To mount a partition of an usb stick you can excute mount /dev/<partition> <mount dir>
(e.g. mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt)
. This will mount the first partition of sdb to /mnt. To unmount the device execute umount <mount dir>
(e.g. umount /mnt
).
