How to use SSH in Vehicle Tracking Device linux system?
A. The board default supports SSH. About details, please refer to the document:
ssh.pdf
Whether the Vehicle Tracking Device support USB OTG interface download?
A. Yes.
How to use GPIO on the Vehicle Tracking Device?
A. User can use the follow command to view the gpio base:
# cd /sys/class/gpio
# for i in gpiochip* ; do echo `cat $i/label`: `cat $i/base` ; done
Then execute follow command to use GPIO.
#OUT_IO_NUMBER=3
#echo ${OUT_IO_NUMBER} > /sys/class/gpio/export
#echo "out" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio${OUT_IO_NUMBER}/direction
or #echo "in" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio${OUT_IO_NUMBER}/direction
#echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio${OUT_IO_NUMBER}/value
or #echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio${OUT_IO_NUMBER}/value
