Description-Overview of the Pi-Tron REV004 Demoboard#
Serial Interfaces#
You need an additional adapter to translate the 3.3V-UART signals (provided on the Mini-USB port) to USB.
| Pi-Tron | Used as | Accessible via | Connector |
|---|---|---|---|
| uart0 | Console; TTL; RS485 | /dev/ttyAMA0 /dev/serial0 |
X800 |
| uart1 | Console; TTL; RS485; RS232 | /dev/ttyS0 /dev/serial1 |
X900 |
Note: The serial device uart0 (ttyAMA0) is the primary UART of the CM3+, this is the full featured serial port. The serial device uart1 (ttyS0) is the secondary UART of the CM3+ and is connected to the mini-UART serial device. Which is a serial port with reduced functionality. See the official Raspberry Pi documentation for the more information. The Pi-Tron CM3+ UARTs cannot be switched between RS232 and RS485.
IOs#
Four digital inputs/outputs (either or) are available. If used as output the state can be read back from the associated input.
The table below shows number and function of available GPIOs.
The Input/Output Voltage are coupled with the Power-Supply-Voltage. Normaly 24V. The maximum output current of each Port is 500mA depending on the power supply. On the Inputs all values over 6V are high and all values under 4V are low.

Display Interfaces#
The Pi-Tron has a HDMI-Interface with an micro-HDMI-Connector. Also there can be used the 40Pol-Header as RGB-Interface.
Ethernet#
| Name | Connector | Linux device |
|---|---|---|
| Ethernet 1 | X600 | eth0 |
| Ethernet 2 | X700 | eth1 |
USB#
The connector X601 is including the two USB ports "top" and "bottom". Both ports are configured as USB Host.
