Introduction
Detailed parameter and function description.
Product Description
My name is CM4-ETH-RS485-BASE-B, which is an expansion board that can be used with Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4, and supports a 7-36V DC power supply and 5V DC power supply of Type-C interface. Onboard four isolated RS485 interfaces, 100M+1000M dual network ports, HDMI interface, two CSI interfaces, two USB interfaces, etc...
Precautions for use
- Do not plug and unplug any device except USB and HDMI when it is powered on.
- Confirm the fan voltage before connecting, only support 5V.
- The Type C interface can be used as a power supply or as a USB interface to burn the image (need to use the DIP switch to switch).
- In order to ensure the normal power supply of CM4, please do not connect other devices when using the Type C interface to burn the image.
- When CM4 is in normal use, it needs to provide a 5V 2A power supply for CM4. Otherwise, there may be problems such as automatic shutdown, frequency reduction, and so on.
- USB2.0 is closed by default, if you need to open it, you need to add dtoverlay=dwc2,dr_mode=host in config.txt.

How to use
Precautions
Do not plug or unplug any device while it is powered on.

USB 2.0
USB2.0 is disabled by default, if you want to enable it, you need to add dtoverlay=dwc2,dr_mode=host in config.txt.
RS485
It is closed by default. If you want to open it, you need to add content in config.txt:
sudo nano /boot/config.txt
dtoverlay=uart0 dtoverlay=uart3 dtoverlay=uart4 dtoverlay=uart5
COM0 occupies GPIO14/GPIO15 (BCM code 14/15), device number ttyAMA0.
COM1 occupies GPIO4/GPIO5 (BCM code 4/5), device number ttyAMA1.
COM2 occupies GPIO8/GPIO9 (BCM code 8/9), device number ttyAMA2.
COM3 occupies GPIO12/GPIO13 (BCM code 12/13), device number ttyAMA3.
If other serial ports are opened, the comments need to be closed, for example:
#enable_uart=1
Note: The default mode is automatic, and the sending and receiving mode is automatically switched; You can modify the 0R resistance on the back if you need program control to send and receive.
- Mode switching: each channel is controlled by two 0R resistors.
- Semi-automatic mode: the 0R resistor is on the "Semi-auto" end, and the user program controls the transceiver mode. (The following figure is in Semi-automatic mode.)
- Full-automatic mode: The 0R resistor is on the "Full-auto" end, and the transceiver mode is automatically switched according to the transmission direction.
RTC
To enable I2C to connect to the RTC controller, you need to set the dtparam=i2c_vc=on configuration file. RTC is on i2c-10, address is 0 x 51 (7-bit address).
sudo nano /boot/config.txt #Add at the end dtparam=i2c_vc=on #Add # in front of dtparam=audio=on #dtparam=audio=on #Save and exit, restart sudo reboot
Downloader

CSI
The following are general instructions for CM4, specific devices differ: this module has no DSI interface and only HDMI0.
Configuration file
CSI and DSI are disabled by default. When using the camera and DSI, it will occupy three I2C devices: I2C-10, I2C-11, and I2C-0.
- Open a terminal and run the following commands:
sudo apt-get install p7zip-full -y wget https://files.waveshare.com/upload/7/75/CM4_dt_blob_Source.zip 7z x CM4_dt_blob.7z -O./CM4_dt_blob sudo chmod 777 -R CM4_dt_blob cd CM4_dt_blob/ # If using two cameras and DSI1 execute sudo dtc -I dts -O dtb -o /boot/dt-blob.bin dt-blob-disp1-double_cam.dts # In the use of any DSI, HDMI1 no image output, even if you do not connect the DSI screen as long as the corresponding file compiled, that HDMI1 no output # If you need to restore, delete the corresponding dt-blob.bin can be: sudo rm -rf /boot/dt-blob.bin #Execution is complete, power off and restart CM4
New Version (Bullseye)
Camera Config
-
Execute the following commands to edit "/boot/config.txt" file.
sudo nano /boot/config.txt
-
Block or remove the automatic camera detection statement:
-
Add the driver of the camera you are using, here I take IMX219 as an example and connect it to CAM0, and attach the adapter.
- If you are using the official Raspberry Pi camera, and only one camera access, no need to set the config file.
- CM4-NANO - only CAM0 is used, so you only need to add "dtoverlay=imx219,cam0".
| Model | CAM0 Set Sentence | CAM1 Set Sentence |
|---|---|---|
| OV9281 | dtoverlay=ov9281,cam0 | dtoverlay=ov9281,cam1 |
| IMX290/IMX327 | dtoverlay=imx290,clock-frequency=37125000,cam0 | dtoverlay=imx290,clock-frequency=37125000,cam1 |
| IMX378 | dtoverlay=imx378,cam0 | dtoverlay=imx378,cam1 |
| IMX219 | dtoverlay=imx219,cam0 | dtoverlay=imx219,cam1 |
| IMX477 | dtoverlay=imx477,cam0 | dtoverlay=imx477,cam1 |
5. Ctrl+x to exit the editor.
6. Reboot the Raspberry Pi.
