# Pi Pico Volcano Remote Control Gadget ![Firmware](https://github.com/xythobuz/Volcano-Remote/actions/workflows/cmake.yml/badge.svg) ![STLs](https://github.com/xythobuz/Volcano-Remote/actions/workflows/scad.yml/badge.svg) Supports: * workflows for the Volcano Hybrid * basic status and settings for Crafty+ * some settings for Venty (untested) For use with Raspberry Pi Pico W boards with the [Waveshare Pico LCD 1.3](https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/Pico-LCD-1.3) and the [Pimoroni Pico Lipo Shim](https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/pico-lipo-shim). Adapted from the [tinyusb-cdc-example](https://github.com/hathach/tinyusb/blob/master/examples/device/cdc_msc/src/main.c), [adc example](https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-examples/tree/master/adc/read_vsys), [standalone client example](https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-examples/blob/master/pico_w/bt/standalone/client.c), [webserver example](https://github.com/krzmaz/pico-w-webserver-example) and my [Trackball firmware](https://git.xythobuz.de/thomas/Trackball). `python-test` contains a similar app to the C version in the top level of the repo, but instead written for MicroPython on the Pico W. Unfortunately I had many performance and space problems with this, so I decided to rewrite it. `web-app` contains a script to conveniently fetch the original web app JS sources, for "reverse engineering". `case` contains the OpenSCAD files of a 3D printed case for the device. You can find the rendered STL files attached to the [GitHub releases](https://github.com/xythobuz/Volcano-Remote/releases), as well as pre-compiled binaries to flash on the device. ## Quick Start When compiling for the first time, check out the required git submodules. git submodule update --init cd pico-sdk git submodule update --init Then do this to build. mkdir build cd build cmake -DPICO_BOARD=pico_w .. make -j4 gadget And flash the resulting `gadget.uf2` file to your Pico as usual. For convenience you can use the included `flash.sh`, as long as you flashed the binary manually once before. make -j4 gadget ../flash.sh gadget.uf2 This will use the mass storage bootloader to upload a new uf2 image. For old-school debugging a serial port will be presented by the firmware. Open it using eg. `picocom`, or with the included `debug.sh` script. For dependencies to compile, on Arch install these. sudo pacman -S arm-none-eabi-gcc arm-none-eabi-newlib picocom cmake cxxtest ## Proper Debugging You can also use the SWD interface for proper hardware debugging. This follows the instructions from the [RP2040 Getting Started document](https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/pico/getting-started-with-pico.pdf) from chapter 5 and 6. For ease of reading the disassembly, create a debug build. mkdir build_debug cd build_debug cmake -DPICO_BOARD=pico_w -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug .. make -j4 gadget You need a hardware SWD probe. This can be made from another Pico, see Appendix A in the document linked above. For this you need to compile the `picoprobe` firmware, like this. git clone https://github.com/raspberrypi/picoprobe.git cd picoprobe git submodule update --init mkdir build cd build PICO_SDK_PATH=../../../pico-sdk cmake .. make -j4 cd ../.. # back to build_debug directory from before And flash the resulting `picoprobe.uf2` to your probe. Connect `GP2` of the probe to `SWCLK` of the target and `GP3` of the probe to `SWDIO` of the target. Of course you also need to connect GND between both. You need some dependencies, mainly `gdb-multiarch` and the RP2040 fork of `OpenOCD`. sudo apt install gdb-multiarch # Debian / Ubuntu sudo pacman -S arm-none-eabi-gdb # Arch Linux git clone https://github.com/raspberrypi/openocd.git --branch rp2040 --recursive --depth=1 cd openocd # install udev rules sudo cp contrib/60-openocd.rules /etc/udev/rules.d sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger ./bootstrap ./configure --enable-ftdi --enable-sysfsgpio --enable-bcm2835gpio make -j4 cd .. # back to build_debug directory from before Now we can flash a firmware image via OpenOCD. ./openocd/src/openocd -s openocd/tcl -f interface/cmsis-dap.cfg -f target/rp2040.cfg -c "adapter speed 5000" -c "cmsis_dap_vid_pid 0x2e8a 0x000c" -c "program gadget.elf verify reset exit" And also start a GDB debugging session. ./openocd/src/openocd -s openocd/tcl -f interface/cmsis-dap.cfg -f target/rp2040.cfg -c "adapter speed 5000" -c "cmsis_dap_vid_pid 0x2e8a 0x000c" arm-none-eabi-gdb gadget.elf target extended-remote localhost:3333 load # program elf into flash monitor reset init # put into clean initial state continue # start program These commands have also been put in the `flash_swd.sh` and `debug_swd.sh` scripts, respectively. They require the `build_debug` folder where you checked out and built OpenOCD. Here are some [general GDB tips](https://beej.us/guide/bggdb/). ## License The firmware itself is licensed as GPLv3. I initially adapted it from my own [Trackball](https://git.xythobuz.de/thomas/Trackball) project. It uses the [Pi Pico SDK](https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-sdk), licensed as BSD 3-clause, and therefore also [TinyUSB](https://github.com/hathach/tinyusb), licensed under the MIT license. Some code is adapted from the TinyUSB examples. And the project uses the [FatFS library](https://github.com/abbrev/fatfs), licensed as BSD 1-clause. Also included are the [MCUFont library](https://github.com/mcufont/mcufont) and the [st7789 library](https://github.com/hepingood/st7789), both licensed under the MIT license. It also uses the [BTstack](https://github.com/bluekitchen/btstack/blob/master/LICENSE) included with the Pico SDK, following their [license terms](https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-sdk/blob/master/src/rp2_common/pico_btstack/LICENSE.RP). The included bootloader is [picowota](https://github.com/usedbytes/picowota), licensed as BSD 3-clause. I'm also using the MicroPython DHCP server, licensed as MIT and included with picowota. The case design is also licensed as GPLv3. It uses a [Pi Pico case model](https://www.printables.com/model/210898-raspberry-pi-pico-case) licensed as CC-BY-NC-SA. But this is only used for visualization purposes and doesn't influence the 3D model at all. The case design itself has initially been made by [Kauzerei](https://github.com/kauzerei/OpensCadaver/blob/main/models/pico_stuff.scad).
