Introduction

The example run-time Linux filesystem image for CM-T3730 is based on Angstrom Linux 2012. The CompuLab Linux package for CM-T3730 includes ready to run Angstrom Linux filesystem image, Linux kernel and source code patches.

The default Angstrom Linux image includes more than 1000 software packages. Among them:

  • Core system
  • X11 Windowing System
  • Enlightenment v0.16 desktop manager
  • Midory web browser
  • Totem and MPlayer media players
  • GStreamer with multiple plugins
  • The Graphics SDK version 4.05.00.03 including the Linux graphics (SGX) drivers and ready to run SGX functionality demos
  • The Digital Video SDK (DVSDK) version 4.03.00.06 including Linux kernel modules, multimedia and DSP packages and ready to run DSP functionality demos

The CM-T3730: Linux: Getting started page provides a brief introduction on how to install the run-time Linux image.
The CM-T3730: Linux: Package contents article describes Linux package structure specific to CM-T3730.

Using Angstrom Linux on CM-T3730

Display options

CM-T3730 evaluation platform has four video output interfaces: LCD, DVI, LVDS and TV-out. Default configuration of Angstrom Linux for CM-T3730 uses DVI as primary video output. It is possible to switch between the DVI and LCD interfaces on the fly. TV-out can be used simultaneously with LCD or DVI interface.
Linux implementation of the OMAP3 display subsystem is described in detail in Documentation/arm/OMAP/DSS file in the Linux kernel source tree.

Display resolutions

  • The Toppoly LCD supplied with CM-T3730 evaluation kit supports 480x640 resolution with 18 bits per color
  • The DataImage LCD supplied with CM-T3730 evaluation kit supports 480x800 resolution with 18 bits per color
  • DVI output can be configured for standard resolutions using kernel command line parameter omapfb.mode:
    1024x768 - omapfb.mode=dvi:1024x768-24@60
    800x600 - omapfb.mode=dvi:800x600-24@60
    640x480 - omapfb.mode=dvi:640x480-24@60
  • TV-out supports PAL and NTSC standards

Examples

Switch from LCD to DVI

mgr0=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/manager0
lcd=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display0
dvi=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display1
fb0=/sys/class/graphics/fb0

w=`cat $dvi/timings | cut -d "," -f 2 | cut -d "/" -f 1`
h=`cat $dvi/timings | cut -d "," -f 3 | cut -d "/" -f 1`

echo "0" > $lcd/enabled
echo "" > $mgr0/display
fbset -fb /dev/fb0 -xres $w -yres $h -vxres $w -vyres $h
# at this point you have to switch the dvi/lcd dip-switch from the omap board
echo "dvi" > $mgr0/display
echo "1" > $dvi/enabled

Clone GFX overlay to LCD and TV

ovl0=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay0
ovl1=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay1
tv=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display2
fb0=/sys/class/graphics/fb0
fb1=/sys/class/graphics/fb1

w=`cat $tv/timings | cut -d "," -f 2 | cut -d "/" -f 1`
h=`cat $tv/timings | cut -d "," -f 3 | cut -d "/" -f 1`

echo "0" > $ovl0/enabled
echo "0" > $ovl1/enabled

echo "" > $fb1/overlays
echo "0,1" > $fb0/overlays

echo "$w,$h" > $ovl1/output_size
echo "tv" > $ovl1/manager

echo "1" > $ovl0/enabled
echo "1" > $ovl1/enabled

echo "1" > $tv/enabled

Switch TV-out from PAL to NTSC

tv=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display2
echo "0" $tv/enabled
echo "ntsc" $tv/timings
echo "1" $tv/enabled

Touchscreen

CM-T3730 Evaluation Kit can be equipped with either of the following LCD touch panels: Toppoly TDO35S or DataImage SCF0403. See Select LCD model to enable support for the particular LCD touch panel. The X Windows system of CM-T3730 uses tslib X server input driver to get the input from the touchscreen.

Touchscreen calibration

Touchscreen calibration can be performed with ts_calibrate utility available in package libts-bin. To calibrate the touchscreen:

  • Run ts_calibrate utility. For proper calibration you are required to touch the touchscreen corners and center in the following order: top-left, top-right, bottom-right, bottom-left, center. The calibration results are saved to file /etc/pointercal.

GPIO access

Linux provides simple and convenient GPIO access via sysfs interface. A GPIO should be exported using /sys/class/gpio/export. After the GPIO is exported it is possible to change its direction and value using /sys/class/gpio/gpioX/direction and /sys/class/gpio/gpioX/value attributes.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to configure GPIO 140 as output and produce a 1usec pulse: 

echo 140 > /sys/class/gpio/export
echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio140/direction
echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio140/value
echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio140/value
usleep 1
echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio140/value

Bluetooth

The CM-T3730 features Bluetooth 4.0 interface. The CM-T3730 Linux package contains pre-build Bluetooth support package based on the TI WL1271 SDK version 3.00.01.06-WL6.1.6.0.3. The following sections demonstrate the Bluetooth device initialization procedure and simple use cases. The CM-T3730 Linux package also provides several scripts for Bluetooth functionality demonstration. The scripts are installed under the /opt/WL1271_demo_01/bluetooth_scripts location.

Angstrom Linux package management

Angstrom Linux for CM-T3730 includes opkg package manager. It can be run from terminal command line.

Digital Video SDK

Overview

The Digital Video SDK (DVSDK) version 4.03.00.06 provides multiple resourses for evaluation and application development for the TI DM3730 platform. Current CM-T3730 Linux package contains the following pre-built DVSDK components: Multimedia Package, DSP Package, and several demo applications for functionality demonstration and validation.

Multimedia Package includes:

  • Multimedia Framework Product (MFP)
    • Codec Engine Framework
    • Framework Components
    • Linux Utils (CMEM)
    • XDAIS (eXpress DSP Algorithm Interoperability Standard)
  • Davinci Multimedia Application Interface (DMAI)
  • DSP Optimized codecs
    • Encoders: H.264, MPEG-4, JPEG, G711
    • Decoders: H.264, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, AAC. JPEG, G711
  • DSP accelerated Gstreamer TI plugin

DSP Package includes:

  • C6000 code generation tool chain
  • DSP/BIOS Real Time Operating System
  • DSPLink Inter Processor Communication
  • C6Accel - easy access to DSP accelerated function libraries
  • C6Run - tool to easily run C code on the DSP

The DVSDK was built outside of OpenEmbedded framework and intensively tested with Linux kernel version 3.0.38. For custom Linux kernel build, the DVSDK must be re-built to avoid compatibility issues. This section describes how to configure Linux kernel at boot time and run DVSDK demos. For detailed DVSDK build instruction please refer to the CM-T3730: Linux: Building images page.

Kernel parameters

The framebuffer plains 1 and 2 must be enabled in the kernel command line for the GStreamer-TI package will work correctly: 

vram=18M omapfb.vram=0:6M,1:6M,2:6M

Additionally, DSP kernel modules require a memory "window" in the kernel memory to allocate a heap buffer of 73MB at 0x83700000. This memory must not be used by any other module or process, so the following parameters must be added to the kernel command line: 

mem=55M@0x80000000 mem=128M@0x88000000
Admolition note.png We do not recommend using DVSDK on CM-T3730 devices with less then 256MB of RAM.

Running Demos

Current CM-T3730 Linux package contains pre-built and ready to run DVSDK functionality demo programs. For additional information about the DVSDK demos please refer to the DVSDK Software Developers Guide.

DSPLink Examples

The DSPLink includes several sample application examples. Use the following example to run the demo applications on CM-T3730:
