4 Get Started

4.1 Essentials You Need

Before starting to use your NanoPi Duo get the following items ready

• NanoPi Duo
• microSD Card/TFCard: Class 10 or Above, minimum 8GB SDHC
• microUSB power. A 5V/2A power is a must
• A Host computer running Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit system
• a serial communication board

4.2 TF Cards We Tested

To make your NanoPi Duo boot and run fast we highly recommend you use a Class10 8GB SDHC TF card or a better one. The following cards are what we used in all our test cases presented here:

• SanDisk TF 8G Class10 Micro/SD TF card:

• SanDisk TF128G MicroSDXC TF 128G Class10 48MB/S:

• 川宇 8G C10 High Speed class10 micro SD card:

4.3 Make an Installation TF Card

4.3.1 Download Image Files

Get the following files from here download link to download image files (under the official-ROMs directory) and the flashing utility(under the tools directory):

Image Files:
nanopi-duo_ubuntu-core-xenial_4.x.y_YYYYMMDD.img.zip	Ubuntu-Core with Qt-Embedded Image File, kernel:Linux-4.x.y
Flash Utility:
win32diskimager.rar	Windows utility. Under Linux users can use "dd"

4.3.2 Make Installation MicroSD Card with Ubuntu-Core with Qt-Embedded Image

Extract an OS image and win32diskimager.rar. Insert a MicroSD card(at least 8G) into a Windows PC and run the win32diskimager utility as administrator. On the utility's main window select your TF card's drive, the wanted image file and click on "write" to start flashing the SD card till it is done.Insert this card into your Duo's MicroSD card slot and power on (with a 5V/2A power source). If the blue LED is blinking this indicates your Duo has successfully booted.

5 Work with Ubuntu-Core with Qt-Embedded

5.1 Run Ubuntu-Core with Qt-Embedded

• If you want to do kernel development you need to use a serial communication board, ie a PSU-ONECOM board, which will allow you to operate the board via a serial terminal

• The NanoPi Duo can work with FriendlyElec's Mini Shield for NanoPi Duo.Here is link to the wiki site of Mini Shield for NanoPi Duo Mini Shield for NanoPi Duo底板介绍. Here is a hardware setup.
  

Mini Shield for NanoPi Duo-Duo

• Ubuntu-Core User Accounts:

Non-root User:

   User Name: pi
   Password: pi

Root:

   User Name: root
   Password: fa

The system is automatically logged in as "pi". You can do "sudo npi-config" to disable auto login.

• Update packages:

$ sudo apt-get update

5.2 Extend TF Card's rootfs Section

When you boot OS for the first time with your image card your OS will automatically resize the file system and this process takes a relatively long time.After your OS is fully loaded you can check the file system's size by using the following command:

$ df -h

5.3 Work with npi-config Utility

The npi-config is a system configuration utility for setting passwords, language, timezone, hostname, SSH and auto-login,and enabling/disabling i2c, spi, serial and PWM and I2S. You can start this utillity by running the following command:

$ sudo npi-config

Here is the npi-config's main window:

5.4 Ethernet Connection

The Mini Shield for NanoPi Duo has an Ethernet port. If a NanoPi Duo is assembled with a Mini Shield and is connected to a network via Ethernet before it is powered on it will automatically obtain an IP after it is powered up. If it is not connected via Ethernet or its DHCP is not activated obtaining an IP will fail and system will hang on for about 15 to 60 seconds. In this case you can try obtaining an IP by using the following command:

$ dhclient eth0

5.5 Wireless Connection

Enable the WiFi function on Duo by running the following commands. The NanoPi Duo has an onboard Wifi antenna. It will be better to connect an external antenna to Duo.

• List network devices

$ sudo nmcli dev

Note: if a network device's status is "unmanaged" it means that device is not accessed by the NetworkManager and you need to clear the settings in " /etc/network/interfaces" and reboot your board.

• Start WiFi

$ sudo nmcli r wifi on

• Scan Nearby WiFi Hotspots

$ sudo nmcli dev wifi

• Connect to a WiFi Hotspot

$ sudo nmcli dev wifi connect "SSID" password "PASSWORD"

The "SSID" and "Password" need to be replaced with your actual SSID and password.
If a connection is successfully established your board will be automatically connected to your specified WiFi on system reboot.

For more details about the NetworkManager refer to this wiki link:Use NetworkManager to configure network settings

The NanoPi Duo supports external USB WiFi modules. Here is a list of models we tested:

Index	Model
1	RTL8188CUS/8188EU 802.11n WLAN Adapter
2	RT2070 Wireless Adapter
3	RT2870/RT3070 Wireless Adapter
4	RTL8192CU Wireless Adapter
5	MI WiFi mt7601

5.6 Login via SSH

You can log into the board via SSH. In our test the IP address detected by our router was 192.168.1.230 and we ran the following command to log into the NanoPi Duo:

$ ssh root@192.168.1.230

The password is fa

5.7 Connect NanoPi Duo to USB Camera(FA-CAM202)

The NanoPi Duo works with FA-CAM202. After a NanoPi Duo is assembled with a Mini Shield for NanoPi Duo you can connect a FA-CAM202 to the Shield's USB port.

The FA-CAM202 is a 2M-pixel USB camera module.For more details refer to this wiki site:Matrix - USB_Camera(FA-CAM202).
Boot your Duo, connect Duo to the internet, log in the system as root, compile and run the mjpg-streamer utility:

$ su root
$ cd /root/mjpg-streamer
$ make
$ ./start.sh

The mjpg-streamer is an open source media server. After it is started successfully you will see the following messages:

 
 i: Using V4L2 device.: /dev/video0
 i: Desired Resolution: 1280 x 720
 i: Frames Per Second.: 30
 i: Format............: YUV
 i: JPEG Quality......: 90
 o: www-folder-path...: ./www/
 o: HTTP TCP port.....: 8080
 o: username:password.: disabled
 o: commands..........: enabled

In our case our Duo's IP address was 192.168.1.123. We typed "192.168.1.123:8080" on a browser, entered and we got the following screenshot:

5.8 命令行查看CPU工作温度

在串口终端执行如下命令，可以快速地获取CPU的当前温度和运行频率等信息：

$ cpu_freq

5.9 通过Rpi-Monitor查看系统状态

Ubuntu-Core系统里已经集成了Rpi-Monitor，该服务允许用户在通过浏览器查看开发板系统状态。
假设Duo的IP地址为192.168.1.230，在PC的浏览器中输入下述地址:

192.168.1.230:8888

可以进入如下页面:

用户可以非常方便地查看到系统负载、CPU的频率和温度、可用内存、SD卡容量等信息。

5.10 通过WiringNP测试GPIO

wiringPi库最早是由Gordon Henderson所编写并维护的一个用C语言写成的类库，除了GPIO库，还包括了I2C库、SPI库、UART库和软件PWM库等，由于wiringPi的API函数和arduino非常相似，这也使得它广受欢迎。 wiringPi库除了提供wiringPi类库及其头文件外，还提供了一个命令行工具gpio：可以用来设置和读写GPIO管脚，以方便在Shell脚本中控制GPIO管脚。
我们在Duo系统中集成了这个工具以便客户测试GPIO管脚。详细信息请参看 WiringNP

6 如何编译Ubuntu-Core with Qt-Embedded系统

6.1 使用开源社区主线BSP

Duo现已支持使用Linux-4.x.y内核，并使用Ubuntu Core 16.04，关于H2+芯片系列开发板使用主线U-boot和Linux-4.x.y的方法，请参考维基：Mainline U-boot & Linux
