QuickStart Steps
The following list is an overview of the steps you should follow to set up
and begin using the DA8xx Evaluation Module (EVM) with the Linux
Platform Support Product (PSP) package.
1) Understand how to use the DA8xx EVM hardware by reading the
EVM technical reference that accompanies the EVM shipment or by
obtaining it online from
http://support.spectrumdigital.com/boards/dskda830.
2) Set up the EVM to boot from the SPI flash on the DA8xx DSP Starter
Kit board.
3) Install the serial terminal software described in Section 2.2.1,
and connect the serial cable provided with
the EVM shipment to the COM port of the host system.
4) Set up the serial console software on the PC to connect to that serial
port with the following characteristics:
■
Baud: 115200
■
Data Bits: 8
■
Parity: None
■
Stop Bits: 1
■
Flow Control: None
5) Power on the board using the power supply that accompanies the
board.
6) If your EVM is pre-flashed with U-Boot and Linux kernel, when you
power on the EVM, you should see U-Boot and Linux boot sequence
messages on the serial console.
Note:
If you do not see U-Boot and Linux boot sequence messages, the
EVM is not pre-flashed with boot software. You need to flash the EVM with
boot software. The pre-built binaries required for booting the EVM are
provided in PSP_02_20_#_#/bin folder of PSP installation directory. Skip to
Chapter 3, "
" to learn how to use them.
7) At the Linux prompt, you can use existing Linux commands to test
various features and use examples from the
PSP_02_20_#_#/examples folder of the PSP installation directory.
