RTC

To set the RTC first set the date from Linux shell, type:

$ date 2013.08.27-15:43

Then set the real time clock from Linux shell, type:

$ hwclock --systohc

Power down your board wait 15 seconds and power up. Check your system with date and the time should be up to date.

Audio record/play

$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
$ arecord -f cd -d 10 -D hw:0,0 test.wav
$ aplay test.wav

WLAN

List SSIDs, from Linux shell type:

$ ifconfig wlan0 up
$ iw wlan0 scan

Connecting to an encrypted network

Find your network from the above scan command.

$ wpa_passphrase <YourAP> <YourPassword> >wpa.conf
$ ps | grep wpa_supplicant
*kill the wpa_supplicant process if exist.
$ wpa_supplicant -Dnl80211 -iwlan0 -c./wpa.conf -B
$ udhcpc -iwlan0
$ ifconfig

WL12xx calibration tool

Calibration of TI WL12xx wireless device is required and is saved into the NVS file. The NVS file is then used by the wl12xx driver. For more details please read [1]
