Pi-Corder Case

This appears to be a technical document with instructions for setting up a Raspberry Pi-based system. Here's a breakdown of the content: **Hardware Setup** The document describes the connections between the Raspberry Pi (RPi) and various hardware components, including a GPS module. The RPi is connected to the GPS module as follows: * Blue/TTL RX on GPS to Pin 8 on P1 connector * Red/Vcc on GPS to Pin 2 or Pin 4 on P1 connector * Black/Gnd on GPS to Pin 6 or Pin 9 on P1 connector Additionally, the document recommends extending some of these connections to a module bay (e.g., RX, TX, +5Vcc) for future use. **Software Setup** The document provides instructions for installing and updating the operating system and display drivers: 1. Update and upgrade the OS using `sudo apt-get update` and `sudo apt-get upgrade`. 2. Add configuration files to enable display support: * Create a new file `/etc/modules-load.d/fbtft.conf` with the following contents: `spi-bcm2835`, `fbtft_device`, and `ads7846`. * Create another file `/etc/modprobe.d/fbtft.conf` with the following contents: `options fbtft_device name=itdb28 gpios=...` and `options ads7846_device ...` 3. Add display driver configuration to `/boot/config.txt`. **Pre-Jessie (Older OS)** The document provides additional instructions for older operating systems (Pre-Jessie): 1. Load the fbtft device module: `modprobe fbtft_device name=itdb28 gpios=...`. 2. Add a TFT overlay to `/boot/config.txt`: `dtoverlay=ads7846,...` **GPS Setup** For GPS-enabled RPi, disable serial port from raspi-config, then install `gpsd` and its clients: 1. Install `gpsd`: `sudo apt-get install gpsd`. 2. Add a GPS configuration to `/etc/rc.local`: `gpsd /dev/ttyAMA0 -F /var/run/gpsd.sock`. **Sound Setup** To use the headset jack as audio output, run: `sudo amixer cset numid=3 1`. **Playing Video Loop (Spoofing TOS Scanner)** To play a video loop using `mplayer`, use the following command on Jessie or Pre-Jessie: * On Jessie: `SDL_VIDEODRIVER=fbcon SDL_FBDEV=/dev/fb1 mplayer -vo sdl ...`. * On Pre-Jessie: `mplayer -vo fbdev2:/dev/fb1 -x 320 -y 240 -loop 20 -framedrop -zoom ...` Overall, this document appears to be a comprehensive guide for setting up a Raspberry Pi-based system with GPS, display, and sound support.
