3. سیٹ اپ اور انسٹالیشن

Follow these steps to properly set up and install your Waveshare CM4-DUAL-ETH-MINI baseboard with a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4.

3.1 Connecting the Compute Module 4

1. Ensure the CM4-DUAL-ETH-MINI baseboard is powered off and disconnected from any power source.
2. Carefully align your Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 with the CM4 Socket on the baseboard. Ensure the connectors are correctly oriented.
3. Gently press the CM4 into the socket until it is securely seated. Do not force the module.

3.2 پاور سپلائی

The CM4-DUAL-ETH-MINI requires a 5V DC power supply via its Type-C interface. For normal operation of the CM4, a 5V/2A power supply is recommended. Insufficient power may lead to issues such as automatic shutdowns or frequency reduction.

When using the Type-C interface to program the CM4's eMMC, ensure no other devices are connected to the baseboard to guarantee stable power delivery during the programming process.

3.3 USB 2.0 Port Activation

By default, the USB 2.0 port is disabled. To enable it, you need to modify the config.txt file on your Raspberry Pi OS. Add the following line to config.txt:

dtoverlay=dwc2,dr_mode=host

3.4 پنکھا کنکشن

If you plan to use a cooling fan, connect it to the 4-wire SH1.0 fan header. اہم: Only 5V fans are supported. Confirm your fan's voltage before connecting to prevent damage.

4. آپریٹنگ ہدایات

Once the Compute Module 4 is securely installed and the baseboard is powered, the system will boot according to the BOOT switch setting (eMMC/Micro SD or USB-C for programming). The dual Gigabit Ethernet ports allow for flexible network configurations, such as setting up a router, firewall, or network bridge.

For specific software configurations, refer to the official Raspberry Pi documentation and relevant open-source projects (e.g., OpenWRT for router applications).

5. دیکھ بھال اور حفاظت

To ensure the longevity and proper functioning of your CM4-DUAL-ETH-MINI baseboard, observe the following guidelines:

• Power Off Before Connecting/Disconnecting: Always power off the device before plugging or unplugging any components, especially the Compute Module 4 or any non-USB peripherals.
• ماحولیاتی حالات: Operate the board in a clean, dry environment, away from extreme temperatures, humidity, and direct sunlight.
• دیکھ بھال کے ساتھ ہینڈل: Avoid static discharge by handling the board by its edges. Do not apply excessive force to connectors or components.
• صفائی: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the board. Avoid liquids or abrasive cleaners.

6 خرابیوں کا سراغ لگانا

یہ سیکشن عام مسائل کو حل کرتا ہے جن کا آپ کو سامنا ہو سکتا ہے:

• System Shuts Down or Reduces Frequency:

  وجہ: Insufficient power supply to the Compute Module 4.

  حل: Ensure you are using a stable 5V/2A power supply connected to the Type-C port. Avoid connecting other high-power devices to the baseboard when the CM4 is in operation.

• USB 2.0 Port Not Functioning:

  وجہ: The USB 2.0 port is disabled by default.

  حل: Refer to Section 3.3 "USB 2.0 Port Activation" and add the necessary line to your config.txt file.

• پنکھا نہیں گھومتا:

  وجہ: Incorrect fan voltage or improper connection.

  حل: Verify that your fan is a 5V model. Check the connection to the 4-wire SH1.0 fan header for proper alignment and secure fit.
• Unable to Program CM4 eMMC via Type-C:

  وجہ: Other devices drawing power, or BOOT switch in incorrect position.

  حل: Disconnect all other peripherals from the baseboard. Ensure the BOOT switch is set to the "ON" position (boot from USB-C interface) before attempting to program.
