4. سيٽ اپ گائيڊ
4.1 Heatsink Installation
Proper heat management is crucial for the CM5's performance and longevity. The included heatsink helps dissipate heat from the processor.
- Carefully align the heatsink with the processor on the CM5 module.
- Secure the heatsink using the provided screws and risers. Ensure a firm but not overly tight fit to avoid damaging the board.
Note: Ensure the heatsink makes good contact with the processor. Incorrect installation can lead to overheating and performance throttling.
4.2 اينٽينا ڪنيڪشن
For wireless functionality, connect the external antenna.
- Locate the antenna connector on the CM5 module.
- Gently screw the antenna into the connector until it is finger-tight. Do not overtighten.
4.3 Connecting to a Carrier Board
The CM5 is designed to be integrated into a carrier board. Ensure your carrier board is compatible with the Compute Module 4 form factor, as the CM5 uses B to B connectors.
- Align the CM5 module with the SODIMM-style connectors on your carrier board.
- Gently press down on both sides of the module until it is fully seated in the connectors.
- Secure the module to the carrier board using any provided mounting hardware.
4.4 آپريٽنگ سسٽم جي انسٽاليشن
Your CM5104032 module comes with 32GB eMMC Flash storage, which acts as the primary storage for the operating system. Raspberry Pi OS is the recommended operating system.
- Connect your carrier board (with the CM5 installed) to a host computer via USB for initial flashing, if supported by your carrier board.
- Download the Raspberry Pi Imager tool from the official Raspberry Pi webسائيٽ.
- Use the Raspberry Pi Imager to select the appropriate Raspberry Pi OS image and flash it to the CM5's eMMC storage. Follow the on-screen instructions provided by the imager.
- After flashing, safely eject the device from your host computer.
Important: Unlike CM4, CM5 does not have a dedicated 'reboot' button for OS installation. The process relies on the carrier board's capabilities and the Raspberry Pi Imager tool. Ensure your carrier board supports eMMC flashing for CM5.
5. آپريٽنگ هدايتون
5.1 شروعاتي پاور اپ
Once the CM5 is securely installed on a carrier board and the OS is flashed:
- Connect necessary peripherals (display, keyboard, mouse) to your carrier board.
- Apply power to the carrier board. The CM5 should boot up.
- Follow the initial setup wizard for Raspberry Pi OS, which may include setting up Wi-Fi, language, and user accounts.
5.2 نيٽ ورڪ ڪنيڪشن
- وائي فائي: Configure Wi-Fi settings through the Raspberry Pi OS desktop environment or command line. Ensure your external antenna is connected for optimal performance.
- Ethernet: Connect an Ethernet cable to the Gigabit Ethernet port on your carrier board for wired network access.
5.3 Using PCIe
The onboard PCIe Gen 2 x1 interface allows for expansion with compatible PCIe devices. Refer to your carrier board's documentation for specific instructions on utilizing the PCIe slot.
6. سار سنڀال
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Waveshare CM5 module:
- صاف رکو: Regularly clean the module and carrier board to prevent dust buildup, which can hinder cooling. Use compressed air or a soft brush.
- حرارت جو انتظام: Ensure adequate airflow around the module, especially when operating under heavy loads. The heatsink is crucial for thermal management. Avoid operating in environments exceeding the specified operating temperature range (-20°C to 85°C).
- سافٽ ويئر اپڊيٽ: Keep your Raspberry Pi OS and firmware updated to benefit from performance improvements, bug fixes, and security patches.
- بجلي جي فراهمي: Use a stable and appropriate power supply for your carrier board to prevent power-related issues.
