The power subsystem connects to the main system via the COM6. The Linux’s default
supported COM interfaces are COM1~COM4. The Power Subsystem APIs implicitly
communicate with power subsystem through COM6. Users must take extra steps to
configure Linux kernel in order to support COM6. Please refer to Appendix A for more
information. Users don’t need extraordinary setup on Windows platform to support COM6.
In this Power Subsystem package, we provide:
1. The APIs to access power subsystem and the source code of the APIs.
2. The utility and source code to monitor and set up power modes, ignition status, and
power-off time.
3. On Linux platform, the Makefile to create API libraries and utility.
