Interface function test

GPIO

1.IO The control nodes are all present:/sys/class/io_control

2.IO corresponds to the following table:

UART

1. Serial port definition reference:

2. Serial port device node system mapping table:

Screen printing of motherboard Device node
COM1 /dev/ttyXRUSB0
COM2 /dev/ttyXRUSB1
COM3 /dev/ttyXRUSB2
COM4 /dev/ttyXRUSB3

3. CuTecom tests the serial port, The COM2 loopback test is used as an example

  • Refer to Steps 1 to 2 to short the TX & RX (2 to 3 pin) of COM2.
  • Double-click the CuteCom icon on the desktop, open APP, Device select the device node corresponding to the test port (see Step 2).
  • Click Settings to set the serial port parameters, as shown in the picture below:

  • Click Open to open the serial port, input characters in the input text box, and press Enter to send data:

4. Test the serial port on the CLI, The COM2 loopback test is used as an example

Open the terminal and enter the following command to receive data:

com_recv /dev/ttyXRUSB1 115200

Open another terminal to send data:

com_send /dev/ttyXRUSB1 115200

The test results are as follows:

LAN

1. Check the IP address of the network adapter, The system dynamically obtains an IP address by default

#ifconfig -a 

2. Set a static IP address for a network adapter

  • Method 1 – Use graphical tool Settings

Double-click the desktop icon:Advanced Network Configuration

  • Method 2 – How to modify the configuration file:
vim /etc/network/interfaces

  • After the modification is complete, enter restart to take effect.
WIFI

1. Click the network icon in the lower right corner to browse the available WIFI routes:

  • Enter your WIFI password and tap connect

2. Method 2 – Connect to wifi from the command line

nmcli d wifi connect "SSID" password "PASSWROD"
4G/5G

1. The system has automatic dialing, Open the terminal and enter the command 4g to dial automatically:

root@rk3399:~# 4g

2. After the dial-up is complete, view the IP address:

3.Open a browser and browse any website.

4. The test method of 5G is similar to that of 4G, Input the command 5g to dial automatically:

root@rk3399:~# 5g

Bluetooth

1. Open the Bluetooth manager and search for nearby Bluetooth devices:

2. Select Bluetooth device, pair and then select Trust:

3. To set the Bluetooth connection type:

WatchDog
Key

1. Run the evtest command to view all keys and input devices in the system:

root@rk3399:~# evtest 
No device specified, trying to scan all of /dev/input/event*
Available devices:
/dev/input/event0:	ff420030.pwm
/dev/input/event1:	USB Optical Wheel Mouse
/dev/input/event2:	SIGMACH1P USB Keyboard
/dev/input/event3:	rk29-keypad
/dev/input/event4:	SIGMACH1P USB Keyboard
Select the device event number [0-4]: 

2. Select a test key as prompted. For example, the RK3399 boot key is /dev/input/event3: rk29-keypad

The event number is 3:Pressing the key prints a value of 1,Releasing the key prints a value of 0,As shown below:

3. Customize the key function. The configuration file is

/etc/triggerhappy/triggers.d/example.conf

The key is the reboot function. It is also the default configuration of the system. You can customize the key as required。

KEY_VOLUMEUP    1   reboot
LCD/Backlight

1. The system supports switching between different LCD screens using APP. Run the dis command to open the APP as shown in the following figure:

  • Select the corresponding eDP/LVDS screen resolution and click Save. After the system restarts automatically, you can switch to the specified LCD:

2. Backlight brightness adjustment:

  • Method 1: Click the following icon in the system tray at the lower right corner to open the backlight adjustment APP

  • Method 2: Control driver application layer interface:
 echo 100 > /sys/class/backlight/backlight1/brightness  

(Note: The larger the value written, the greater the brightness,max_brightness 为250)

PowerManager

1. Power management Settings:

Press POWER to wake up after sleep 2. The power management function is not supported by all products. To customize the system, contact the service window personnel.

RTC/Timezone

1.View the current system time:

[root@rk3399:~]# date
Wed Jun  8 15:54:09 CST 2022

2. To set the synchronization hardware clock:

[root@rk3399:/]# date -s "2022-06-08 17:01:01"
Wed Jun  8 17:01:01 CST 2022
[root@rk3399:/]# hwclock -w
[root@rk3399:/]# hwclock -r
Wed Jun  8 17:01:09 2022  0.000000 seconds

3. Power off for more than 5 seconds, and then turn it on to check whether the system time is saved:

[root@rk3399:/]# date 
 Wed Jun  8 17:02:30 CST 2022

Note: The system uses network time synchronization by default. The above RTC test needs to be conducted when the external network is disconnected. 4. Time zone setting

  • Method 1 – Modify the link file, such as China, Shanghai:
ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Shanghai /etc/localtime
reboot

To set other time zones, simply change Asia/Shanghai in the preceding command to the corresponding time zone city.

  • Method 2 – Open preferences -&gt in sequence on the graphical interface; Time and date, select the time zone as shown below:

Close the window and run the date command to view the time zone change:

CPU

To view CPU information:

cat /proc/cpuinfo
Memory

Check the memory capacity:

free -h
EMMC

View the available capacity of the EMMC

df -h
