OnRISC configuration utility provides following features to configure OMAP3 based devices:
• configure serial interfaces (RS232, RS422 etc.)
• configure OTG/CFast switching
• configure RTC
• configure digital I/O
• get EEPROM info
• set MACs from EEPROM
B.1. Configure Serial Interfaces
Both VS-860 and Alekto2 provide two UARTs working in RS232/RS422/RS485 modes. Invoking
onrisctool.py without parameters will show which mode each port is configured to:
Port 1: mode control: DIP-switch
Port 1: mode: rs232
Port 2: mode control: DIP-switch
Port 2: mode: rs232
As one can see both port are configured in RS232 mode through DIP-switches. To switch the first
port into RS422 mode execute:
onrisctool.py -t rs422 -p 1
All possible modes are show in the Table 8
