- Connect all 5v and GND to the Solar Panels's 5v and GND
Arduino setup
- Flash
src/controller-arduino/controller.ino
using the Arduino IDE.
Carbon Setup
- Compile
cd zephyr_base
source zephyr-env.sh
west build ./src/rover-zephyr/solar-rover -b 96b_carbon
- Flash Vio OTG
- Connect the micro-USB cable to the USB OTG Carbon port and to your computer. The board should power ON. Force the board into DFU mode by keeping the BOOT0 switch pressed while pressing and releasing the RST switch
- You should see following confirmation on your Linux host:
$ dmesg usb 1-2.1: new full-speed USB device number 14 using xhci_hcd usb 1-2.1: New USB device found, idVendor=0483, idProduct=df11 usb 1-2.1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 usb 1-2.1: Product: STM32 BOOTLOADER usb 1-2.1: Manufacturer: STMicroelectronics usb 1-2.1: SerialNumber: 3574364C3034
