Introduction
Thank you for choosing the VES-500. The VES-500 is
Lanner’s flagship Single Board Computer. It features
Freescale IMX6 series processors.
This computer-on-module consists of a motherboard
populated with the Freescale® iMX6™ series processor,
providing a rich I/O capabilities and flexibility via high-
bandwidth interfaces such as Mini-PCI Express sockets,
Serial ATA, and Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connectivity.
It also contains advanced I/O connectors as the following
listed:
-built-in GPS (provided by Neo-6Q) and G sensor
-Internl MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface)
connector
-Wide range of DC power input from 9V to 30V, suitable
for vehicular 12V or 24V battery with Ignition control (with
VEK-IGN01 ignition board).
-CAN bus Connector via DB-9 female connector
-Dual Mini-PCI Express Sockets (one comes with a SIM card
reader for 3G Internet service)
-External SIM card reader
-External SD card reader
-Line-out/microphone jack as well as HDMI connector
The platform is supported by a Linux BSP as well as
multiple third party operating systems and reference
implementations that allow fast time to market and rapid
prototyping. We include development instructions in
the BSP folder in the Driver and User Manual CD. More
