2. Image Installation
The VAB-630 only supports booting Android from the SPI ROM with eMMC. This section
explains the setup requirements for booting from the SPI ROM with eMMC.
The installation script files, the precompiled U-boot and image are provided in the
“Firmware” folder.
Requirements
2.1.
•Host machine
•Micro SD card
•EVK package : VAB-630_Android_EVK_v1.0.3.zip
Booting from the SPI ROM with eMMC
2.2.
The first step is to insert a Micro SD card into the host machine and create a FAT
formatted partition. Next, extract the VAB-630_Android_EVK_v1.0.3.zip and copy the
bspinst folder and scriptcmd file onto the Micro SD card.
Insert the prepared Micro SD card into the VAB-630, connect an HDMI display, and
power on the device to initiate the update process.

*Note:
Keep the power on during the installation process. After the installation process has
completed, the system will automatically restart.

3. Hardware Functions
This section explains how to enable and test the hardware functions precompiled in the
VAB-630 Android EVK including setting u-boot parameters, configuring displays settings
as well as installing and applying the different functions included in the VIA Smart ETK
sample program.
Setting Up U-Boot Parameters
3.1.
VIA recommends that console board (P/N: 15GCU000000-20) and console cable (P/N:
99G33-192486) are used in order to configure the VAB-630 parameters.
The first step is to connect the host machine to the console board, then connect the
console board to the VAB-630 through the Debug UART connector (J1). Use a serial
port communication program such as PuTTY, GtkTerm, or Minicom, to configure the
serial port setting and connect to the debug console. There you will be able to see the
U-Boot boot log and adjust settings in the U-Boot console.

Configuring Display Parameters
3.2.
The VAB-630 Android BSP v1.0.3 supports the following display devices:
•ONation 10.1” LVDS Panel VIA1001 OT101RBWDLT-00 (1280×800)
•HDMI monitor (default)
The following sections below describe how to switch the settings from HDMI to LVDS,
and vice versa.
Setting Up the LVDS Display Parameter
3.2.1.
To set up the LVDS monitor, first connect the ONation LVDS panel to the VAB-630
board through the LVDS1 connector
.
Connecting LVDS panel
Use the following command to change the U-Boot parameters for the ONation LVDS
Panel
WMT # setenv wmt.display.fb0 0:[6:0:18:1280:800:60]
WMT # setenv wmt.display.ui.res 1280:800
WMT # saveenv
WMT # reset
From the output above we can see 1280:800 is the detected resolution set for the LVDS
panel.
