    1.42 +<p>
    1.43 +	RaspiComm is a pluggable board which use advanced features like a 5-way
    1.44 +	joystick, two serial ports (RS-232 and RS-485), l2c output, and a 
    1.45 +	realtime clock. The board let you directy control a display, a stepper
    1.46 +	motor controller, relays, and more.
    1.47 +</p>
    1.48 +
    1.49 +<p>
    1.50 +	SliTaz Raspberry Pi provides a built-in tool to let you use and test
    1.51 +	the RaspiComm board out-of-the-box. Shutdown down your Pi if needed,
    1.52 +	plugin the board on the GPIO pins and boot the system then run the
    1.53 +	testsuite:
    1.54 +</p>
    1.55 +
    1.56 +<pre>
    1.57 +# raspicomm init
    1.58 +# raspicomm testsuite
    1.59 +</pre>
    1.60 +
    1.61 +<p>
    1.62 +	The testsuite will prompt you to move the Joystick left and top 
    1.63 +	after the LEDs tests. To initialize the board on each boot, setup 
    1.64 +	the system clock and automaticaly load the i2c kernel modules, you 
    1.65 +	need to edit the <b>local.sh</b> boot script and add a line to start 
    1.66 +	'raspicomm init'. This can be done in one command or using a text
    1.67 +	editor:
    1.68 +</p>
    1.69 +
    1.70 +<pre>
    1.71 +# echo 'raspicomm init' >> /etc/init.d/local.sh
    1.72 +</pre>
    1.73 +
    1.74 +<p>
    1.75 +	The Real Time Clock use i2c bus. When the clock is initialized you
    1.76 +	can find information in: /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-1/1-0068. On the
    1.77 +	first setup you need to sync the system clock from the web and then
    1.78 +	set the RTC from the system clock. On next reboot the system clock
    1.79 +	will be synced with the Real Time Clock:
    1.80 +</p>
    1.81 +
    1.82 +<pre>
    1.83 +# rdate -s tick.greyware.com
    1.84 +# hwclock --systohc
    1.85 +</pre>
    1.86 +
    1.87 +<p>
    1.88 +	Here is a small SHell example to turn on/off LED1. The led use the
    1.89 +	gpio pin number 18. The raspicomm utility already exported the
    1.90 +	LEDs pins so we just have to set the value. 1 to turn it on and 0
    1.91 +	to switch it off:
    1.92 +</p>
    1.93 +
    1.94 +<pre>
    1.95 +# echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/value
    1.96 +# echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/value
