===PWM Code Sample===

The PWM pin in NanoPi NEO/NEO2 is multiplexing which can be set to either PWM or SerialPort0. To set this pin to PWM you need to run "sudo npi-config" and enter the "Advanced Options" menu to Enable/Disable PWM. Note: after PWM is enabled SerialPort0 will not be accessed and you need to login your board via SSH.<br />

1 Introduction to WiringPi

The wiringPi library was initially developed by Gordon Henderson in C. It contains libraries to access GPIO, I2C, SPI, UART, PWM and etc.
The wiringPi library contains various libraries, header files and a commandline utility:gpio. The gpio utility can be used to read and write GPIO pins.

2 Introduction to WiringNP

The wiringPi library was initially developed for BCM2835, and later migrated to Allwinner H3 and renamed as WiringNP. Now the WiringNP works with FriendlyElec's NanoPi M1, NanoPi NEO and NanoPi NEO2. The first version was made by wertyzp. FriendlyElec developed a version for Allwinner H5 based NanoPi NEO2.

Here is WiringNP's project page: https://github.com/friendlyarm/WiringNP

3 Install WiringNP on NEO/NEO2

Log into your nano board via SSH, open a terminal and install the WiringNP library by running the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/friendlyarm/WiringNP
cd WiringNP/
chmod 755 build
./build

4 Install WiringNP on NanoPi M1

Log into your nano board via SSH, open a terminal and install the WiringNP library by running the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/friendlyarm/WiringNP
cd WiringNP/
git checkout nanopi-m1
chmod 755 build
./build

4.1 Verify WiringNP

The WiringNP library contains a set of gpio commands. Users can use them to access the GPIO pins on a nano board. You can verify your WiringNP by running the following command:

gpio readall

If your installation is successful the following messages will show up. Here is the message list for NEO2:

5 Code Sample with WiringNP

Here is a setup to connect a Matrix - LED module to a NanoPi NEO2:
WiringNP-LED-Demo
Here is the connection:

Matrix-LED NanoPi M1
S Pin7
V Pin4
G Pin6

We will show how to use WiringNP to control a LED module.
In the following code samples index 7 stands for Pin7. We will use "7" to access this physical pin.

5.1 C Source Code

Make a C source file:

vi test.c

Type the following lines:

#include <wiringPi.h>
int main(void)
{
  wiringPiSetup() ;
  pinMode (7, OUTPUT) ;
  for(;;)
  {
    digitalWrite(7, HIGH) ;
    delay (500) ;
    digitalWrite(7,  LOW) ;
    delay (500) ;
  }
}

Compile and run "test.c":

gcc -Wall -o test test.c -lwiringPi -lpthread
sudo ./test

You can see the LED is blinking.

5.2 PWM Code Sample

The PWM pin in NanoPi NEO/NEO2 is multiplexing which can be set to either PWM or SerialPort0. To set this pin to PWM you need to run "sudo npi-config" and enter the "Advanced Options" menu to Enable/Disable PWM. Note: after PWM is enabled SerialPort0 will not be accessed and you need to login your board via SSH.

Here is a hardware setup to connect a Matrix - Buzzer to a NanoPi NEO2:
WiringNP-PWM-Demo

Create a source file in C:

vi pwmtest.c

Type the following code:

#include <wiringPi.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdint.h>
int main (void)
{
  int l ;
  printf ("PWM test program\n") ;
 
  //using wiringPi Pin Number
  int pin = 18;              
  if (wiringPiSetup () == -1)
    exit (1) ;               
 
  /*
  //using Physical Pin Number
  int pin = 38;              
  if (wiringPiSetupPhys() == -1)
    exit (1) ;                  
  */                            
 
  /*
  //using BCM Pin Number
  int pin = 5;          
  if (wiringPiSetupGpio() == -1)
    exit (1);                   
  */                            
 
  pinMode (pin, PWM_OUTPUT);
  for (;;) {                      
    for (l = 0 ; l < 1024 ; ++l) {
      pwmWrite (pin, l) ;         
      delay (1) ;        
    }                              
    for (l = 1023 ; l >= 0 ; --l) {
      pwmWrite (pin, l) ;          
      delay (1) ;        
    }            
  }         
  return 0 ;
}

Compile the pwmtest.c file and run the generated executable:

gcc -Wall -o pwmtest pwmtest.c -lwiringPi -lpthread
./pwmtest

Connect a PWM beeper to a NEO/NEO2 and the beeper will sound.

5.3 Shell Script

Make a shell script:

vi test.sh

Type the following lines:

LED=7
gpio mode $LED out
while true; do
  gpio write $LED 1
  sleep 0.5
  gpio write $LED 0
  sleep 0.5
done

Run the script:

sudo source test.sh

You can see the LED is blinking.

6 Regular WiringNP APIs

Note:most of the descriptions for the following functions are from http://wiringpi.com/. To get more details refer to http://wiringpi.com/.

6.1 Initialization

6.1.1 wiringPiSetup (void)

This function initializes wiringPi and uses the pin specifications defined by wiringPi. To check detailed pin specifications you can command "gpio readall".
You need to call this function as root.

6.1.2 int wiringPiSetupGpio(void)

This function is similar to the wiringPiSetup function. The only difference is that this function assumes the GPIO's pin specifications are the ones defined by CPU and haven't been redefined.
You need to call this function as root.

6.1.3 int wiringPiSetupPhys (void)

This function is similar to the wiringPiSetup function. The only difference is that it only supports P1's interface and doesn't support physical pin specifications.
You need to call this function as root.

6.1.4 int wiringPiSetupSys (void)

This function initializes wiringPi and access hardware by using "/sys/class/gpio" APIs rather than commanding hardware directly.
This function can be called by any users. The GPIO pin numbers used by this function should be the ones defined by CPU. This is similar to the rules followed by the wiringPiSetupGpio function.
Before calling this function make sure to call "/sys/class/gpio" APIs to list the pins you want to access.
You can list the pins you want to access in a separate shell script. Or you can command GPIO pins by calling "system()".

6.2 Core Functions

6.2.1 void pinMode (int pin, int mode)

This function sets a pin to INPUT, OUTPUT, PWM_OUTPUT or GPIO_CLOCK.
Note: after you call the wiringPiSetupSys function to access a pin calling this function will not make change that pin's mode.
You can set a pin's mode in a shell script.

6.2.2 void pullUpDnControl (int pin, int pud)

This function sets a pin to the pull-up or pull-down resistor mode when that pin is set to INPUT.
Unlike the Arduino the NanoPi M1 has both the pull-up an pull-down resistor modes.
The parameter pud can be: PUD_OFF, (no pull up/down), PUD_DOWN (pull to ground) or PUD_UP (pull to 3.3v).
The internal pull up/down resistors have a value of approximately 100KΩ on the NanoPi M1.
Note: after you call the wiringPiSetupSys function to access a pin calling this function will not make change that pin's mode.
If you need to activate a pull-up/pull-down resistor you can do it by using GPIO commands in a script before you start your program.

6.2.3 void digitalWrite (int pin, int value)

This function writes either HIGH or LOW to a pin. Before you call this function to access a pin make sure you have set that pin to OUTPUT.
WiringPi treat any non-0 value to HIGH and 0 is the only value that is treated as LOW.

6.2.4 void pwmWrite (int pin, int value)

This function writes a value to a PWM register. The value can be any one in 0~1024. Different PWM devices may take different value ranges.
Note: after you call the wiringPiSetupSys function to access a pin calling this function will not be able to write a value to that pin.

6.2.5 digitalRead(int pin);

This function reads a pin's value. The value is either HIGH(1) or LOW(0).

6.2.6 analogRead (int pin) ;

This function returns a value it reads from an analog pin. To effectively call this function make sure you have connected a working analog device such as Gertboard and quick2Wire to your board.

6.2.7 analogWrite (int pin, int value) ;

This function writes a value to an analog pin. To effectively call this function make sure you have connected a working analog device such as Gertboard to your board.
