Revision as of 21:50, 5 February 2014

The Galileo is a fusion of a Linux PC running Intel's architecture and an Arduino. The purpose is to provide the benefits of a pc (connectivity, power, storage, ports) with the benefits of an Arduino (an open-platform hardware interface.)

This page specifically discusses the Galileo. Anything Arduino-specific should get relegated to here.

info dump

IoTkit handles ethernet transactions. It connects to a host and sends a packet with [string, val] where val is the value you wish to send.

There aren't any packages installed on their Linux distro.

There's an interface for C++ that lets you access the Arduino.

Installation

Materials

  • Galileo board
  • power adapter
  • micro SD card
  • micro usb male -> RS32 female
  • RS32 male -> usb male
  1. download the "getting started" document
  2. plug power into Galileo (always do this first)
  3. join RS32 cables
  4. connect Galileo to the PC
  5. download and extract "Intel Galileo Arduino SW 1.5.3" the Arduino IDE for Galileo
  6. open Arduino 1.5.3 and update the firmware via help -> firmware update
  7. wait for completion
  8. in device manager (or equivalent) find the device [specify] and install the drivers from "arduino-1.5.3/hardware/arduino/x86/tools"
  9. note what COM port the Galileo is attached to
  10. open Putty (or equivalent) and change the connection type to serial, speed to 115200, and the serial line to your specified COM port
  11. save the settings and open the connection
  12. wait for start up
  13. log in as root; by default it has no password
  14. download [the linux image]
  15. extract the previous file to the micro SD card
  16. close your putty
  17. place the card into the Galileo and power cycle it
  18. open putty again and reestablish the connection
  19. it should work now; try running the "blink" sketch in arduino
