[beagleboard] Re: GPIO Digital input voltage more than 3.3V

2015-03-09 Thread Dave Blomfield
The Texas Instruments TBX0101 IC should do the trick. The BBB connects to 
port A and the speed sensor to Port B. Use the BBBs 3.3V supply to connect 
to VccA. Depending on the speed sensor supply I'd regulate that down to +5V 
to connect to the VccB pin (can only take up to 5.5V max).
Farnell do the IC part number 2335605. There's a good data sheet to 
accompany it as well.

Cheers

Dave

 Hi,

 I've been using the classic Beaglebone for a while now and today received

 I was using on the classic BB the board remains locked up with the four

[beagleboard] Beagleboneblack: Display performance issue, while interfacing with MIPI

2015-03-09 Thread s.no...@mobiveil.co.in


Hi all,

Currently we are facing Display performance issue. i.e, display is not 
building up quickly. 

For Your Information,

1. We use Beagle Bone  Black board and debian, By default *CONFIG_NEON is 
enabled* in kernel(3.8).

2. *[ Beagle Bone Black (LCD controller + SPI)] -- [MIPI (SSD2828)] 
 LCD.*

3. We run *clock frequency as 68.43MHz*, Hope this should not be problem as 
Beagle Bone Black support upto ~120MHz.

4. Number of pixels - *1280 x 800.*

4. We use *MIPI bridge(SSD2828)*, to interface with MIPI LCD.

Let us know if there is any steps that we need to take care to resolve this 
issues.

If there is any way to figure out or test the display performance will be 
helpful to narrow down the issue.

- Nobel

Hi,
 
What your are seeking for will work under every standard OS. The questions 
is not if it works, the question is which latencey you can accept - means 
how fast must thread A resume after the 10ms elapsed? To get an idea what 
BBB can do I reccomend to have a look at toyooka_LCJ2014_v10.pdf 
http://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/slides/toyooka_LCJ2014_v10.pdf
.
I would not be surpised if Debian w/o any patches can fulfil your latency 
needs.

[beagleboard] Adafruit Library - Disable GPIO cleanup

2015-03-09 Thread david . berger95
Hey guys!
Maybe somebody of you know the solution to my problem.
I use the Adafruit_BBIO.GPIO library in my python programm. With that 
library I set or clear some GPIO.
All that is no problem. But, if I leave my script, my previous setup of 
these GPIO is lost and all GPIOs have
the value that's given through the pull-resistors of my PCB. I googled that 
and could read, that the GPIOs are set
to floating if the script is leaving (clean up process). For my purpose 
that control isn't desired and should be disabled.

Are my assumptions with the clean up process right?
Is it possible to disable or walkaround this clean up at the end?
If yes, how? :-)

Thanks for your help
Dave

*P.S. Posted this question to the adafruit forum too.*

[beagleboard] programming BBB - choice of language

2015-03-09 Thread richard.leverton

Hello All

I'm starting to design a commercial project which will use a number of 
networked BBB's as process controllers.  While Im an experienced DP guy, 
Im an absolute newbie with the BBB hardware and software.

I'm at the point of choosing a language in which the applications will be 
written.  The main application will be a no-user, stand-alone, repetitive 
data-processing application, so I want a language with the following 
characteristics :

   1. high level
   2. procedural
   3. modular - high cohesion and low coupling
   4. non-object oriented
   5. strong array processing
   6. runs under Linux
   7. compilable 
   
My research tells me that Python is the most-used high-level language 
within the BBB community, but it fails ( at least somewhat ) on several of 
the above requirements.

My research tells me that XBasic ( which satisfies all of the above ) 
doesn't seem to be much used within the BBB community.

My Questions, therefore are :

A - XBasic is said to run under Linux - does anyone know of a reason why it 
would not work on the BBB  ?

B - am I missing something profoundly wrong with XBasic which precludes its 
use ?


thanks very much for taking your time to help me out


richard

[beagleboard] Beagleboard-xm boot loop

2015-03-09 Thread Alexander Zenger
Hi,

I wanted to reactive my old beagleboard-xm. So I went ahead and tried
installing the lastest Ubuntu from [1]. Unfortunately after the
installation the board hangs in a bootloop. I then tried to install
Archlinux from [2] with the same effect. After that I tried installing
Ubuntu 12.04 which worked. But after doing a release upgrade to Ubuntu
14.04 the bootloop reappeared.

This is what I get on the serial console:

escribió:

 There are lots of ways to extract the contents of the eMMC to save off and 
 reuse. I'm proposing a method using Buildroot and an initramfs such that 
 you can simply drop a few files from a .zip onto a normal, FAT-formatted SD 
 card to perform the extraction. There are several things really handy here, 
 such as the ability to edit autorun.sh to be whatever script you want to 
 run on your board at boot. In the archive, I only have the necessary 
 autorun.sh for *saving* your eMMC content. The flip-side is provided here 
 in the text such that you need to go through a couple of steps before you 
 trash your eMMC.

 The steps for saving off your eMMC contents to a file:
 * Get a 4GB or larger uSD card that is FAT formatted.
 * Download https://s3.amazonaws.com/beagle/beagleboneblack-save-emmc.zip 
 and extract the contents onto your uSD card.
 * Eject uSD card from your computer, insert into powered-off BeagleBone 
 Black and apply power to your board.
 * You'll notice USR0 (the LED closest to the S1 button in the corner) will 
 (after about 20 seconds) start to blink steadily, rather than the 
 double-pulse heartbeat pattern that is typical when your BeagleBone Black 
 is running the typical Linux kernel configuration.
 * It'll run for a bit under 10 minutes and then USR0 will stay ON steady. 
 That's your cue to remove power, remove the uSD card and put it back into 
 your computer.
 * You should see a file called BeagleBoneBlack-eMMC-image-X.img, where 
 X is a set of random numbers. Save off this file to use for restoring 
 your image later.

 Because the date won't be set on your board, you might want to adjust the 
 date on the file to remember when you made it. Delete the file if you want 
 to make room for a new backup image. For storage on your computer, these 
 images will typically compress very well, so use your favorite compression 
 tool.

 To restore the file, make sure there is a valid 
 BeagleBoneBlack-eMMC-image-.img file on the uSD card and edit 
 autorun.sh with your favorite text editor to contain the following:
 #!/bin/sh
 echo timer  /sys/class/leds/beaglebone\:green\:usr0/trigger 
 dd if=/mnt/BeagleBoneBlack-eMMC-image-X.img of=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=10M
 sync
 echo default-on  /sys/class/leds/beaglebone\:green\:usr0/trigger

 *NOTE*: Be certain to replace the 'X' above with the proper name of 
 your image file.

 This image was built using Buildroot. The sources are at 
 https://github.com/jadonk/buildroot with tag save-emmc-0.0.1. Download 
 via https://github.com/jadonk/buildroot/releases/tag/save-emmc-0.0.1 or 
 clone the git repo. It is a small fork from git://
 git.buildroot.net/buildroot tag e9f6011617528646768e69203e85fe64364b7efd.

 To build, 'make beagleboneblack_defconfig; make; ./mkuimage.sh'.  Output 
 files (am335x-boneblack.dtb, MLO, u-boot.img and uImage) will be in the 
 output/images subdirectory. The following files were created manually.

 uEnv.txt:
 bootpart=0:1
 bootdir=
 fdtaddr=0x81FF
 optargs=quiet capemgr.disable_partno=BB-BONELT-HDMI,BB-BONELT-HDMIN
 uenvcmd=load mmc 0 ${loadaddr} uImage;run loadfdt;setenv bootargs 
 console=${console} ${optargs};bootm ${loadaddr} - ${fdtaddr}

 autorun.sh:
 #!/bin/sh
 echo timer  /sys/class/leds/beaglebone\:green\:usr0/trigger 
 dd if=/dev/mmcblk1 of=/mnt/BeagleBoneBlack-eMMC-image-$RANDOM.img bs=10M 
 sync
 echo default-on  /sys/class/leds/beaglebone\:green\:usr0/trigger

 The kernel is based on 
 https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel/commit/9fdb452245a58158a4bea787cdc663c17681bcfe,
  
 but I applied the patches, added firmware and uploaded it to 
 https://github.com/beagleboard/linux/commit/ddd36e546e53d3c493075bbebd6188ee843208f9
  
 to pull down in the Buildroot makefile. The link to the source for the 
 firmware is in the commit.

 I've applied to join the Buildroot mailing list to send these patches 
 upstream. The power management firmware is not yet loading properly, but 
 that is something I can look into.

 Happy hacking!

 trash your eMMC.

 The steps for saving off your eMMC contents to a file:
 * Get a 4GB or larger uSD card that is FAT formatted.
 * Download https://s3.amazonaws.com/beagle/beagleboneblack-save-emmc.zip 
 and extract the contents onto your uSD card.
 * Eject uSD card from your computer, insert into powered-off BeagleBone 
 Black and apply power to your board.
 * You'll notice USR0 (the LED closest to the S1 button in the corner) will 
 (after about 20 seconds) start to blink steadily, rather than the 
 double-pulse heartbeat pattern that is typical when your BeagleBone Black 
 is running the typical Linux kernel configuration.
 * It'll run for a bit under 10 minutes and then USR0 will stay ON steady. 
 That's your cue to remove power, remove the uSD card and put it back into 
 your computer.
 * You should see a file called BeagleBoneBlack-eMMC-image-X.img, where 
 X is a set of random numbers. Save off this file to use for restoring 
 your image later.

 Because the date won't be set on your board, you might want to adjust the 
 date on the file to remember when you made it. Delete the file if you want 
 to make room for a new backup image. For storage on your computer, these 
 images will typically compress very well, so use your favorite compression 
 tool.

 To restore the file, make sure there is a valid 
 BeagleBoneBlack-eMMC-image-.img file on the uSD card and edit 
 autorun.sh with your favorite text editor to contain the following:
 #!/bin/sh
 echo timer  /sys/class/leds/beaglebone\:green\:usr0/trigger 
 dd if=/mnt/BeagleBoneBlack-eMMC-image-X.img of=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=10M
 sync
 echo default-on  /sys/class/leds/beaglebone\:green\:usr0/trigger

 *NOTE*: Be certain to replace the 'X' above with the proper name of 
 your image file.

 This image was built using Buildroot. The sources are at 
 https://github.com/jadonk/buildroot with tag save-emmc-0.0.1. Download 
 via https://github.com/jadonk/buildroot/releases/tag/save-emmc-0.0.1 or 
 clone the git repo. It is a small fork from git://
 git.buildroot.net/buildroot tag e9f6011617528646768e69203e85fe64364b7efd.

 To build, 'make beagleboneblack_defconfig; make; ./mkuimage.sh'.  Output 
 files (am335x-boneblack.dtb, MLO, u-boot.img and uImage) will be in the 
 output/images subdirectory. The following files were created manually.

 uEnv.txt:
 bootpart=0:1
 bootdir=
 fdtaddr=0x81FF
 optargs=quiet capemgr.disable_partno=BB-BONELT-HDMI,BB-BONELT-HDMIN
 uenvcmd=load mmc 0 ${loadaddr} uImage;run loadfdt;setenv bootargs 
 console=${console} ${optargs};bootm ${loadaddr} - ${fdtaddr}

 autorun.sh:
 #!/bin/sh
 echo timer  /sys/class/leds/beaglebone\:green\:usr0/trigger 
 dd if=/dev/mmcblk1 of=/mnt/BeagleBoneBlack-eMMC-image-$RANDOM.img bs=10M 
 sync
 echo default-on  /sys/class/leds/beaglebone\:green\:usr0/trigger

 The kernel is based on 
 https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel/commit/9fdb452245a58158a4bea787cdc663c17681bcfe,
  
 but I applied the patches, added firmware and uploaded it to 
 https://github.com/beagleboard/linux/commit/ddd36e546e53d3c493075bbebd6188ee843208f9
  
 to pull down in the Buildroot makefile. The link to the source for the 
 firmware is in the commit.

 I've applied to join the Buildroot mailing list to send these patches 
 upstream. The power management firmware is not yet loading properly, but 
 that is something I can look into.

 Happy hacking!

[beagleboard] Re: programming BBB - choice of language

2015-03-09 Thread Stephan Mulacz
It's a bit of an contradiction for me that you ask for modularity but don't 
want an object based language.
Development of XBasic seems to have stopped about 2002. The community that 
could help you will be rather small.
Much of the documentation is not available anymore. I can only assume that 
this is an interpreter language as most of the basic dialects (although 
sourceforge category is 'compiler').  This means you would need to compile 
the interpreter sourcecode for the ARM before you can use it.
I would recommend a more recent language with a bigger community. I never 
needed any other language than C++. Here and than I thought I need to learn 
java, but than I never needed it.
C++ is probably the best supported language on Linux systems. If you don't 
want objects you don't need to use them.

[beagleboard] Linux-firmware for Realtek rtl8192cu wifi dongle

Re: [beagleboard] Re: programming BBB - choice of language

2015-03-09 Thread William Hermans
It's probably time for you to embrace modern technology, and forgo some (
or all ) the restrictions you're placing on yourself. Past that. these
restrictions are not reasonable. A programing language is a tool, and every
took has its intended use,

C for example could possibly work very well for your situation, but really
depends how important the above restrictions are, restriction #1 would have
to go, and restrictions 3  5 may fit the bill, depending on your
definitions on each. C is very modular in the context that you can
compartmentalize your code, and strong array processing . . . would depend
on you, your ability to find a good library, and / or using regular
expression.

Another consideration would be what exactly are you building ? Some
languages are better suited for different types of projects. Not
necessarily the languages in of themselves, but the libraries, or quality
of libraries available to the given languages. No one in their right mind
would deny that you *could* write a web UI backend using C, or even ASM.
But something like Nodejs ( javascript ) may very well make more sense in
the long run.

Re: [beagleboard] Re: programming BBB - choice of language

2015-03-09 Thread Richard Leverton

hi William

thanks very much for replying

you are absolutely right that a programming language is a tool, and a 
metaphor that resonates with me since Im also a woodworker.  I know 
that I can use a jackknife or an axe to shape a board, but a saw and 
plane do the job better and with less work, so I always use the tool 
that is appropriate.


You've clearly spotted the fact that i'm an old-timer, but i'll take an 
old-timer's perogative to give you my point of view - the 'restrictions' 
you think I should forgo are not restrictions I place on myself, but the 
design considerations required by a mindset that goes back to the old 
days when it was unthinkable to release a piece of code with even one 
error in it.  By consciously selecting the tools that will produce the 
best job, I actually free myself ( and the coders i hire ) from endless 
recoding and patching.  however, enough of my rant :-)


you're also right to ask what Im building and relating it to the 
language I use - since the product will NOT be an end user product, it 
doesn't need slick web dodads or gui interfaces.  what the product will 
be is process control code applying a patented logic through a network 
of microprocessors which control an industrial process through hundreds 
of sensors and relays. what it needs is perfect code, easily written and 
easily maintained that will run 24/7 unattended without fail.  That is 
why my list of requirements is what it is. The only thing 'new' in what 
i'm doing is the BeagleBone black microprocessors which weren't 
available in the 'old days'.  Sadly, the modern software technology ( 
and i daresay the modern software coders' mindset ) is responsible for 
the shoddy and error-ridden code i see almost everywhere.  I'm hoping to 
avoid that trap.


Your tip about good libraries is also a very good one, and one that I am 
actively pursuing ( but of course, I need to choose a language in order 
to use the library, don't I :-)   )


not sure what you mean by 'regular expression'

anyway, I really appreciate your taking the time to offer your advice, 
and I hope my ranting hasn't been discourteous.


regards
richard

 Then there's still the library support for the hardware, though, but

I thought that the support for the cross compiled environment that we

Had you made GUI applications with Lazarus?  It would be good to know.
Then there's still the library support for the hardware, though, but
Pascal can call C++ routines, IIRC.

Sure.  However, I'm not sure how well Lazarus supports processors like
the BBB.  All I've used it on is the PC, where it's reasonably
compatible with old Delphi code.  I was not convinced that they really
had done a good job on the language yet


For embedded programming (Xmega), I use embedded C (GNU-AVR).

Re: [beagleboard] DTO and GPIO output error

2015-03-09 Thread Graham
A possible and likely cause of this problem is that you are compiling for 
dynamic linking with the c libraries at run time, and the version of the c 
library you compiled against, and the c library you are trying to link 
against at run time, are different and non-compatible. This is a possible 
problem when cross-compiling.

What version of glibc.so are you compiling with?  (The one in your 
cross-compiler host.)
What version of glibc.so are you trying to dynamically link with at run 
time? (The one in your BBB.)

Either you need to get the libraries to match, or at least be compatible, 
or include the compiler libraries as hard linked inside the executable.  
This will cause your executable to swell up in size, but will guarantee 
that the c libraries match.

Re: [beagleboard] Re: programming BBB - choice of language

2015-03-09 Thread William Hermans
Richard, I can not state it any better than wikipedia ( regular expression
).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression

Basically like wildcards, but much more powerful. Now as to whether or not
just using regex represents strong array handling . . . again that
depends on your definition.

When I mentioned a web UI backend above that was just an example, but what
you're describing seems to fit C very closely, No, C is not high level, but
as long as C has been around, you can almost guarantee you'll be able to
find a library that will work for you. An executable compiled from C can
also be very compact, and super fast.

Now for sure, an inexperienced developer can write bad code in C, however
this is true of any language. Possibly more so with C, since it is a very
powerful language. A language that also demands you understand what your
code does. But again . . . this is true for all programing languages out
there.

Easy to maintain ? Bug free code ? This is all the responsibility of the
developer(s) using any language.

I would also consider how much bloat many of these high level languages add
to an executable when compiled.

With all the above said, one other language did come to mind after thinking
about it a bit. FreeBasic, but I've never used it. So I have no idea what
the BCL ( base class library ) is like, and no idea how many libraries
exist for it. It is one of the few languages I hear of now and again, but
have never looked in to. Mostly because I try to distance myself from any
form of basic when possible. Funny that back in the  early 90's the first
languages I started with was quickbasic . . .

good morning, community,

I am new with the Beaglebone Black rev C,   the board started to be slow or 
blocked even using a terminal (shell),  after that  I try to reboot   but 
it appear on the screen of my monitor just 15 or more lines about  that it 
does not recognize ports,  GPIO,   Hdmi,   and not boot, or not enter to 
the debian distro.
The led 0  (USR0)  remain blinking with the led 2 (USR2)  while the screen 
seems to be paralized on those errors.


On the web there is not reference.

another thing, I try to recovery of my data and codes that I did on the 
Emmc,  but the procedure does not work,  not read the uSD,  and  when I 
push the S2 (chage boot), the leds do not  Blink. ???

Someone knows what happen with the Board,  or How I can save the data   
first, and how I get it back.???

In this moment, I can not do anything with the board.


I appreciate your help.

P/S I am using logic supply CBB-TTL-232 with UART4.

 Thanks Robert,

 Letting your jessie image update itself brought python to the latest 2.7.9
 version which is a good news.

 I saw that yesterday, suprised me as:

 https://packages.debian.org/jessie/python

 still only lists 2.7.8...

 Is there any write-up on BBB jessie? I see that wheezy serial port naming
 /dev/ttyO* was replaced by the traditional /dev/ttyS*

 So going forward /dev/ttyS* is the new default..  However if your
 running systemd you won't notice the serial console changes for
 login... For /dev/ttyO* - /dev/ttyS* we do have a udev rule setup..

 https://github.com/RobertCNelson/omap-image-builder/blob/master/tools/setup_sdcard.sh#L1045

 just not fully tested.. but it worked last week..

 Hopefully i've done enough, where most people won't notice. ;)

 Regards,

[beagleboard] Re: Beaglebone Black Ethernet Phy Not Detected on Boot.

2015-03-09 Thread Richard-tx

I have a BBB that sometimes fails to have a useable network interface at 
power up.   Removing power and reapplying power does resolve the issue.  Is 
there a fix for this issue?  Would an upgrrade to Rev C fix this?

[beagleboard] Using microsd card on beaglebone black

2015-03-09 Thread Ray Madigan
The instructions for expanding memory on a microsd card assume that the os 
is booted from the microsd card.  Can I just use a microsd card and follow 
the same instructions, but deleting the boot partition to make use of the 
full microsd card?  Sorry if this question has been asked probably hundreds 
of times before.
