Test Notes:

eMMC Environment saving

setenv serverip 192.168.2.93
saveenv
reset board
printenv serverip

Sdcard environment saving

Close the connector JM1:

setenv serverip 192.168.2.93
saveenv

printenv serverip

Ethernet

Once the serverip has been saved connect the board at J25:

setenv ipaddr 192.168.2.70
ping 192.168.2.161

The output should be:

Using ethernet@30bf0000 device
host 192.168.2.161 is alive

Do the same test on port J26. The output should be:

Using ethernet@30be0000 device
host 192.168.2.161 is alive

Boot from eMMC

Open the connector JM1:

saveenv

The output should be:

Saving Environment to MMC... Writing to MMC(2)... OK

Boot from sdcard

Close the connector JM1:

saveenv

The output should be:

Saving Environment to MMC... Writing to MMC(1)... OK

USB

Plug USB storage devices in J27/J28 connectors (both USB buses are in host mode for OTG serial download is not available on XTOUCH 2.0):

usb start

The output should be:

starting USB...
Bus usb@38100000: Register 2000140 NbrPorts 2
Starting the controller
USB XHCI 1.10
Bus usb@38200000: Register 2000140 NbrPorts 2
Starting the controller
USB XHCI 1.10
scanning bus usb@38100000 for devices... 2 USB Device(s) found
scanning bus usb@38200000 for devices... cannot reset port 3!?
4 USB Device(s) found
       scanning usb for storage devices... 3 Storage Device(s) found

usb tree

The output should be (for example):

USB device tree:
  1  Hub (5 Gb/s, 0mA)
  |  U-Boot XHCI Host Controller 
  |
  +-2  Mass Storage (480 Mb/s, 100mA)
       Lexar USB Flash Drive AAGQFTGHNCK9GDXE

  1  Hub (5 Gb/s, 0mA)
  |  U-Boot XHCI Host Controller 
  |
  +-2  Hub (480 Mb/s, 2mA)
  | |
  | +-3  Mass Storage (480 Mb/s, 200mA)

  |    
  +-4  Mass Storage (5 Gb/s, 224mA)
        USB  SanDisk 3.2Gen1 04010b53be303fea317bff34a9d8b86

Once done do:

usb stop

stopping USB..

to safely remove storage devices.

Serial Download

Open JM1 and close JM3 jumper to enable serial download. Connect the board with the source machine (i.e. the machine you are downloading the images from) by using the board's OTG header (N/A).

Power on the board.

From source machine check if an USB device for serial download is detected:

uuu -lsusb

Output:

uuu (Universal Update Utility) for nxp imx chips -- lib1.5.141

Connected Known USB Devices
    Path     Chip    Pro     Vid     Pid     BcdVersion
    ==================================================
    1:1  MX865   SDPS:   0x1FC9 0x0146   0x0002

Here we see a device is detected. Then type:

uuu -v -b emmc_all imx-boot engicam-evaluation-image-mx8-imx8mp-icore.rootfs.wic

And wait for the download and flash of eMMC to finish.

Note

Note 1

Connect board's ethernet with your machine's one.

On your machine launch iperf3 server by typing:

iperf3 -s

On board launch iperf3 in client mode:

iperf3 -c 192.168.10.1

Using the IP address of your server machine.

Output:

Note 2

Connect TX/RX PIN connector J21 to the UART 232 port From terminal launch command:

test_serial ttymxc0

Verify that the characters written from keyboard are echoed in terminal.

Note 3

Tested with other RS485 device connected with command:

test_serial2 -d /dev/ttymxc2 -b 115200

Be sure to launch the command test_serial2 on both devices to see the communication between devices on the terminal:

Device = /dev/ttymxc2, Baudrate = 115200
Open Port

Note 4

Set a time and date to the clock:

date -s "2000-01-01"
hwclock -w && sync

Turn off the system and power it back on. Once it booted check that the date is the same:

hwclock

Note 5

Tested with command:

gst-launch-1.0 -v videotestsrc  ! capsfilter caps="video/x-raw, width=1024, height=600"  !  autovideosink

Note 6

Tested with command:

echo <n> > /sys/class/backlight/backlight/brightness

where n is an integer from 0 to 100

Note 7

Tested with command:

evtest /dev/input/event0

Note 8

Record an audio file with command:

arecord -d 5 -f S16_LE /tmp/test-mic.wav

then play and check with command:

aplay /tmp/test-mic.wav

Note 9

Connect J23 or J24 header to another board CAN header (or simply connect together J23 and J24 on the same board) and configure related can links on both ends of the connection:

End A:

ip link set can0 type can bitrate 125000

End B (for example on other board, can1):

ip link set can1 type can bitrate 125000

Enable interfaces on both ends:

End A:

ifconfig can0 up

End B (for example on other board, can1):

ifconfig can1 up

Make End A listen:

cantest can0

Send a frame from End B:

cantest can1 5A1#11.2233.44556677.88

Check output on End A:

read 16 bytes
5A1  [8] 11 22 33 44 55 66 77 88

Do the same from B to A (make B listen and A send a frame). When done on same board the command sequence is:

ip link set can0 type can bitrate 125000
ip link set can1 type can bitrate 125000
ifconfig can0 up
ifconfig can1 up
cantest can0 &
cantest can1 5A1#11.2233.44556677.88
sleep 1
cantest can1 &
cantest can0 5A1#11.2233.44556677.88
