good morning ..
the premise that we are writing with the help of google translator. forgive us..

we are trying to use the dev. board Olinuxino A13, so far so good.
10 days from now, reading up on every forum we have found, we can not use it the ENC28J60, nor the MOD I/O.
we have already tried to recompile the kernel with the integration of the "driver" module not getting any results.
there is documentation about it?
the Olimex selling everything does not provide support for these modules?

thanks!
sorry again for the translation

Hi,

have you tried to read this topic: https://www.olimex.com/forum/index.php?topic=462.0?
We have made a first enc28j60 integration, but now it seems that we are facing some trouble with packets reception.
In that forum thread you can find some useful information about how to connect enc28j60, and the patches for enc28j60 module.

hi ..

we read the discussion in the post and we knew almost everything.
there is now a ENC28J60 working with A13?
about the MOD I/O can you tell me something?

Thank you for your help.

PS: Lorenzo is an Italian name, Italian user?

lorenzo

Sorry, but I didn't get the point. The MOD-ENC28J60 is the same as enc28j60. You can connect it through the UEXT port of OlinuXino-A13. What do you mean with MOD I/O?
Now enc28j60 has some problems with RX frames, that have some bytes messed up.

Yes, I'm an Italian user.

emmh .. posso parlare italiano con te?  :)

this is the module I/O: https://www.olimex.com/Products/Modules/IO/MOD-IO/

JohnS

Olimex made a sample using MOD-IO with Android so the A13 does work with the MOD-IO.

You'd have to write some program code to control its relays etc, and there are samples on the net of using I2C if you look.

berner64

this program to test the module:

https://github.com/OLIMEX/OLINUXINO/blob/master/SOFTWARE/A13/ANDROID-MOD-IO/modio.apk
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBydZn8FylE

but with regard to the configuration at the "hardware" of the module I/O? what to do?

can you give me a link where they talk about I2C about it?
thank you.

olimex

@berner64 MOD-IO works with A13 both in Android and Linux all you have to do is to send few I2C commands to MOD-IO to make it work, but I really can't understand what do you mean with "but with regard to the configuration at the "hardware" of the module I/O? what to do?" question, what is your nationality can you ask your question in your native language and if here we have somebody from same country to try to make human translation not goole translation?

JohnS

In google
olinuxino mod-io

and it's about #4 in the results

olimex

+ there is MOD-IO project for imx233 https://github.com/OLIMEX/OLINUXINO/tree/master/SOFTWARE/iMX233/MOD-IO
wich should work 1:1 on A13 too just the I2C fs path must be updated

JohnS

Simple changes such as... refer to A13 schematic and UEXT is TWI2 so need fs path
i2c-2
instead of i2c-0
