Dacu is an ARM Cortex-A8 industrial tablet platform, built around a carrier board hosting the [[:Category:Lizard|Lizard]] CPU module. The main system specifications are the following:
 
 
Dacu is a '''carrier board''' that can host various '''DAVE Embedded Systems''' SOMs, like, for example, the [[:Category:Lizard|Lizard]] CPU module.
 
{{ImportantMessage|text=Please note that DACU supports several BOM variants in order to mate with different SOMs or evaluation boards.}}

J5 is a standard DB9 '''male''' connector for the configurable UART/CAN port. The board provides some '''hardware''' mount options for the selection of the UART mode (RS232/RS422/RS485 with auto-direction) or the CAN mode. The board default configuration provides the CAN interface on this port, while the RS232/RS422/RS485 interface is provided as an option to customers who choose the alternative configuration.

Connectors pinout[edit | edit source]

The following section describes the on-board connectors and their pinout.

Power supply[edit | edit source]

Power is provided through the JP2 DC Power Jack. Power voltage range is [12-24 V]

Lizard module connectors – J1, J2[edit | edit source]

J1 and J2 are the mating connectors for Lizard CPU module.

UART1 - J4[edit | edit source]

RS232 (4-wire) -

UART2 - J5[edit | edit source]

RS232 (4-wire) RS485 (half-duplex) CAN

Configuration Jumper J26 e J27

UART3 - J25[edit | edit source]

Quick start[edit | edit source]

This section describes how to quick start Dacu system.

"Full control" mode[edit | edit source]

  1. connect the serial cable, provided with the board, to J3 pin-strip connector
  2. connect this cable to PC COM port through a NULL-modem cable (not provided)
  3. start your favourite terminal software on PC; communication parameters are:
    • baud rate: 115200 Bps
    • data bits: 8
    • stop bits: 1
    • parity: none
  4. connect the system to Ethernet LAN (RJ45 connector, J6)
  5. connect a 12Vcc power supply to to the power jack (JP2)

Once power has been applied, U-Boot bootloader will be executed and the following messages will be printed on serial console:

U-Boot 2009.11-00074-g34e0d5b-dirty (Jul 17 2012 - 11:00:55) [dacu-android-0.9.2]

DAVE Lizard board + LPDDR/NAND
I2C:   ready
DRAM:  256 MB
Flash: 32 MB
NAND:  1024 MiB
In:    serial
Out:   serial
Err:   serial

Ethernet PHY: GENERIC @ 0x11
DaVinci EMAC                                                                                                       
Hit any key to stop autoboot:  0                                                                                   
=>

Once the boot process has completed, you'll get the default Android "desktop":

Android default lock screen

Moreover, you'll have immediate access to the Android shell, so you can use the shell commands to interact with the system and see the output messages on the console. Using the serial console doesn't prevent you from using also the adb tool to access the system.

"Normal" mode[edit | edit source]

  1. connect the system to Ethernet LAN (RJ45 connector, J6)
  2. connect a 12Vcc power supply to to the power jack (JP2)

Once power has been applied, the system will boot loading the software components from the internal flash. Once the boot process has completed, you'll get the default Android "desktop":

You can now access the system using adb.


Default IP address[edit | edit source]

200px-Emblem-important.svg.png

The default IP address is 192.168.0.122


Running the Android Debug Bridge (ADB)[edit | edit source]

ADB is a fundamental development tool and enables remote access to the Android device. ADB is provided with the Android SDK, so before using it you must install the SDK.

To establish the ADB connection, on a Linux host machine open a shell and launch the following commands:

$ export PATH=${PATH}:<your_sdk_dir>/platform-tools
$ export ADBHOST=<target's ip address>
$ adb kill-server
$ adb start-server

On a Windows host machine, open a shell and launch the following commands:

adb tcpip 5555
adb connect <target's ip address>:5555
adb kill-server
adb start-server


To check the connection, please launch

$ adb devices 

If everything is working properly, you should see the following messages:

$ adb devices
List of devices attached
emulator-5554    device

You can open a remote shell using the following command:

$ adb shell

To install an application (in .apk format), you can use the following commmand:

$ adb install <path to apk>
