User Guide

Download demo codes

  • Please download demo codes from #Resources.
  • After you write the image to an SD card or EMMC, you can copy the demo codes downloaded to BOOT directly. (If you use the pre-configured image, this step isn't required).
  • Download rpiboot_setup software from #Resources and unzip it. Install rpiboot software and remember the installation directory.

Writting image

On Compute Module IO Board Plus (Hereafter called IO Board), an SD card slot is integrated for image installation of Compute Module 3 Lite (hereafter called CM3L) and Compute Module 3+ Lite(hereafter called CM3+L). If the board you use is Compute Module 3 (CM3) or Compute Module 3+ (CM3+), the image is written to EMMC and booted instead of the SD card.

Download image

  • Download the newest Raspbain image from the Raspberry Pi website or download the pre-configured images from #Resources.
  • Unzip the file downloaded to get the .img file.

Write image for CM3L/CM3+L

  • To write an image, you should prepare an SD card (16G or large) and a card reader.
  • Use Win32DiskImage.exe software to write images to an SD card. (It is the same as how you write an image for Pi 3B)
  • After writing, insert the SD card into the card slot of the IO Board.

Write image for CM3/CM3+

  • Download the Raspbian image and unzip it to get the .img file.
  • Insert CM3/CM3+ to IO Board, set BOOT ENABLE USB SLAVE jumper to EN side, remove USB SLAVE1/2/3/4 Select jumper caps. Connect USB SLAVE of IO Board to PC.
Compute-Module-Board-Manual-1.png
  • Under the installation directory of "rpiboot_setup", find the "rpiboot.exe" file and run it as an administrator. After successful execution, you will find that the CM3/CM3+ is recognized as a removable disk on your PC. (Note: When using CM3+ for the first time, you may need to manually format and assign a drive letter in your PC's disk management for it to be detected in "My Computer".
  • Use WinDiskImager.exe tool to write images downloaded to EMMC of CM3/CM3+. (Please first format it)
  • After writing, please set BOOT ENABLE USB SLAVE jumper back to DIS side and insert USB SLAVE1/2/3/4 Select jumpers back.

  • Connect the Power adapter to the Power interface to start devices.

【Note】

While writing images, DO NOT write other portable storage drives to avoid conflict. The EMMC of CM3+ is extended, which allows CM3+ to install a common desktop image. Because the EMMC of CM3 is only 4G, therefore if you want to write an image to CM3, please choose Raspbian Lite. You can also install GUI for Lite image separately by commands below (network is required)
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-ui-mods

Connect display and camera

If you use the pre-configured image, you only need to connect the devices and use them. If the image you use is official Raspbain, you also need to configure software for official display and camera.

Connect official Raspberry Pi 7inch display

  • Connect official 7inch display to DISP1 interface of IO Board by adapter board.
  • Wire 5V and GND pins of display to 5V and GND of IO Board.
  • Wire pins:
    • GPIO0 <-> CD1_SDA
    • GPIO1 <-> CD1_SCL
  • Connect power adapter
  • Display is turn on after booting.

【Note】

If the display work abnormally, please check hardware connection and software setting (software setting please refer to #Setup software for display and camera)

Connect Waveshare HDMI display

  • We have several HDMI displays can be used for Raspberry Pi, here we take 7inch HDMI LCD (C) as example.
  • Disconnect official DPI display, otherwise HDMI display cannot work.
  • Connect HDMI interface of 7inch HDMI LCD (C) to HDMI interface of IO Board. Connect the Touch interface of display to USB port of IO Board.
  • Connect power adapter
  • Display is turned on after booting.

【Note】

If you use Waveshare HDMI display, you need to config Raspbain according to WIKI page of display.

Connect Camera

  • Connect camera to CAM1 interface of IOBoard.(You may require RPi zero V1.3 Camera cable
  • Wire:
    • GPIO0 <-> CD1_SDA
    • GPIO1 <-> CD1_SCL
    • GPIO4 <-> CAM1_IO1
    • GPIO5 <-> CAM1_IO0
  • Connect power adapter
  • You can connect two cameras at the same time by connecting another camera to CAM0 interface.
  • Wire:
    • GPIO28 <-> CD0_SDA
    • GPIO29 <-> CD0_SCL
    • GPIO30 <-> CAM0_IO1
    • GPIO31 <-> CAM0_IO0
  • To capture camera, please run commands:
    • sudo raspivid -t 0 -cs 0
    • sudo raspivid -t 0 -cs 1

【Note】

-cs is used to choose camera 0 or 1; 0 for CAM1 and 1 for CAM0
The parameter of -cs stand for the number of the camera connected, it may be different with the silk screen printing on the board. If you only connect one camera and connect it to the CAM1 interface, the command should be run is also "-cs 0", it means that it will call the first camera (camera 0).

Setup software for display and camera

If you use official Raspbian, you need to setup software for using official display and the cameras as well. Convert dts file to bin and then put it to /boot directory. (dts files are provided in demo codes, located in /Program/dt)


Covnert commands:

sudo dtc -I dts -O dtb -o /boot/dt-blob.bin dt-blob-disp1-cam2.dts

If you use pre-configured, you needn't to setup again.

Demo codes

To run the sample codes, you should connect the display and keyboard to Raspberry Pi for control, or you can remotely access Raspberry Pi via SSH.

If you use the original Raspbian image, please first install libraries before running the example. For details of libraries installation, please refer to Libraries for Pi

FAQ

 Answer:
  • Make sure your CM3/CM3+ version is correct. The eMMC version of CM3/CM3+ will have an additional IC on the back. Only the eMMC version can be programmed using the USB SLAVE method.
  • We recommend using the WIN10 system for programming, as most users have reported unstable programming on WIN7 or Linux systems.
  • Ensure the Power interface is connected to a 5V 2A or higher power adapter. Try to re-power the mainboard.
  • Open the 'rpiboot.exe' software with administrator privileges.
  • Try using a different USB data cable.
  • Switch to a different USB port on your PC.
  • Attempt to unplug and re-plug the CM3/CM3+.
  • Try restarting your PC.
  • Attempt programming on another computer.
