2.3.1 Raspberry Pi OS (Lite)
If you use the system image provided by us, after the system starts, you will automatically log in with the
user name pi, and the default password is raspberry.
If you use the official system image, and the image is not configured before burning, the configuration
window will appear when you start it for the first time. You need to configure the keyboard layout, set the
user name and the corresponding password in turn.
Set the configuration keyboard layout

User Manual of ED-GWL2010
EDATechnology Co.,LTD–Electronics Development Accelerator
Create a new user name
Then set the password corresponding to the user according to the prompt, and enter the password again
for confirmation. At this point, you can log in with the user name and password you just set.
2.3.2 Enable SSH
All the images we provide have turned on the SSH function. If you use the official image, you need to
use a method to turn on the SSH function.
2.3.2.1 raspi-config
sudo raspi-config

4 Software Operation Guide

User Manual of ED-GWL2010
EDATechnology Co.,LTD–Electronics Development Accelerator
4.1 Button
ED-GWL2010 has a user-defined button, which is connected to the GPIO23 of CPU. By default, it is at
high level, and when the key is pressed, the pin is at low level.
We use the raspi-gpio command to test, and query the GPIO23 pin when the key is not pressed.
raspi-gpio get 23
GPIO 23: level=1 fsel=0 func=INPUT
level of 1 indicates that the GPIO23 pin is high.
When the key is pressed, query the GPIO23 pin.
raspi-gpio get 23
GPIO 23: level=0 fsel=0 func=INPUT
level of 0 indicates that the GPIO23 pin is low.
4.2 LED Indication
ED-GWL2010 has an RGB tricolor LED indicator. Corresponding to the GPIO pin of CPU is as follows:
RGB LED PIN
GPIO
Blue
GPIO16
Green
GPIO20
Red
GPIO21
When the GPIO output is low, the corresponding LED is valid.
We use the raspi-gpio command to operate, and the configuration parameter is op, which means output
setting, dl setting pin is low level, and dh setting pin is high level.
The LED is displayed in blue.
sudo raspi-gpio set 16 op dl
sudo raspi-gpio set 20 op dh
sudo raspi-gpio set 21 op dh
The LED is displayed in green.
sudo raspi-gpio set 16 op dh
sudo raspi-gpio set 20 op dl
sudo raspi-gpio set 21 op dh
The LED is displayed in red.
sudo raspi-gpio set 16 op dh
sudo raspi-gpio set 20 op dh
