=== Linux stty ===
* Setup APF28 serial port for RS485 communication:
<pre class=apf>
# stty -F /dev/ttySP0 raw
# stty -F /dev/ttySP0 -echo -echoe -echok
# stty -F /dev/ttySP0 rs485
</pre>
 
* Set extra delays for TXEN/RTS signaling before and after the transmitted packet (in microseconds):
<pre class=apf>
# stty -F /dev/ttySP0 rs485delaybefore 100
# stty -F /dev/ttySP0 rs485delayafter 100
</pre>
 
* To get current RS485 parameters. (If the port device supports the RS485 options you will see the last two lines)
<pre class=apf>
# stty -F /dev/ttySP0
speed 9600 baud; line = 0;
intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^?; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>;
eol2 = <undef>; swtch = <undef>; start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; rprnt = ^R;
werase = ^W; lnext = ^V; flush = ^O; min = 1; time = 0;
-brkint -imaxbel
rs485 -rs485rtsonsend -rs485rtsaftersend -rs485rxduringtx
rs485delaybefore = 100; rs485delayafter = 100; rs485delaylastchartx = 1250;
</pre>
Please note:
* You can't set the "rs485delaylastchartx" parameter, it's calculated automatically from the baudrate.
Special notes for the APF28/iMX28 mxs-auart driver:
* All delays are in microseconds.
* The "rs485delaylastchartx" parameter is not used in DMA mode.
* The parameters: "rs485rtsonsend" "rs485rtsaftersend" "rs485rxduringtx" are not used. (Only used by atmel_serial.c and crisv10.c drivers)
* If the RS485 mode is turned on, it will override (turn off) the RTS/CTS hardware flow settings of the uart, don't care what is configured.
 
 
=== C code ===
* The RS485 mode can be turned on with ioctl calls from C code, here is the example:
<source lang="C">
#include <stdio.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <linux/ioctl.h>
#include <linux/serial.h>
#include <asm-generic/ioctls.h> /* TIOCGRS485 + TIOCSRS485 ioctl definitions */
 
int main(void) {
        struct serial_rs485 rs485conf;
 
        int fd = open ("/dev/ttySP0", O_RDWR);
        if (fd < 0) {
                printf("Error: Can't open: /dev/ttySP0\n");
        }
 
 
        /* Don't forget to read first the current state of the RS485 options with ioctl.
            If You don't do this, You will destroy the rs485conf.delay_rts_last_char_tx
            parameter which is automatically calculated by the driver when You opens the
            port device. */
        if (ioctl (fd, TIOCGRS485, &rs485conf) < 0) {
                printf("Error: TIOCGRS485 ioctl not supported.\n");
        }
 
        /* Enable RS485 mode: */
        rs485conf.flags |= SER_RS485_ENABLED;
 
        /* Set rts/txen delay before send, if needed: (in microseconds) */
        rs485conf.delay_rts_before_send = 0;
 
        /* Set rts/txen delay after send, if needed: (in microseconds) */
        rs485conf.delay_rts_after_send = 0;
 
        if (ioctl (fd, TIOCSRS485, &rs485conf) < 0) {
                printf("Error: TIOCSRS485 ioctl not supported.\n");
        }
 
        fcntl(fd, F_SETFL, 0);
        int n = write(fd, "ABC\r\n", 5);
        if (n < 0) {
                /* Error handling */
        }
 
        if (close (fd) < 0) {
                printf("Error: Can't close: /dev/ttySP0\n");
        }
}
</source>
 
 
=== Hardware Notes ===
* The RS485 Transmit Enable (TXEN) output will be the RTS pin of the uart.
* The TXEN/RTS output is _active low_, it must be inverted to use it with the popular RS485 transceiver ICs.
* When the u-boot runs and the board start to boot, the RTS pin works as input, please add a pullup resistor to this pin before the inverter, to prevent RS485 bus lockups.
 
 
 
 
== OneWire ==
Informations and mini HOWTOs for my APF28DEV OneWire patch.
 
 
=== Software installation ===
* Recompile your Linux kernel with OneWire GPIO bus master (and some slave device) support.
* The driver works only in static compiled mode. (Load as module did not work.)
<pre class="host">
$ make linux-menuconfig
</pre>
<pre class="config">
Device Drivers  --->
    <*> Dallas's 1-wire support  --->
        1-wire Bus Masters  --->
            <*> GPIO 1-wire busmaster
        1-wire Slaves  --->
            <*> Thermal family implementation
</pre>
<pre class="host">
$ make
</pre>
* Reflash your Linux kernel
 
 
=== Hardware Notes ===
* Connect the OneWire slave directly to the APF28_DEV board J9 connector:
  * Vcc 3.3V is pin 1 on J9 connector
  * DQ is pin 31 on J9 (LCD_D18 / GPIO 1_18)
  * GND is pin 39 on J9
* Add an 1.2k pullup resistor between Vcc and DQ
 
 
=== How it works ===
The OneWire bus master driver every 10 seconds scan the bus for new slave devices.
 
Each detected OneWire slave device have a sub-directory with it's unique ID in "/sys/devices/w1 bus master".
 
The sub-directory format is <2 digit family ID>-<12 digit unique ID>.
<pre class=apf>
# ls -la /sys/devices/w1\ bus\ master/

-r--r--r--    1 root    root          4096 Jan  1 01:07 w1_master_timeout
</pre>
You can list the detected slaves from this files:
<pre class=apf>
# cat /sys/devices/w1\ bus\ master/w1_master_slave_count
1
# cat /sys/devices/w1\ bus\ master/w1_master_slaves
28-000001e68904
</pre>
Let's read the temperature: (The 28-xxx family is a DS18B20 temperature sensor in this example.)
<pre class=apf>
# cat /sys/devices/w1\ bus\ master/28-000001e68904/w1_slave
dd 01 4b 46 7f ff 03 10 1e : crc=1e YES
dd 01 4b 46 7f ff 03 10 1e t=29812
</pre>
The t=29812 means, the temperature is: 29.812°C
