DevTerm

Getting started

Assembly - Follow the assembly manual came with DevTerm to assemble the parts.

Batteries - The 18650 batteries are NOT included in the package due to global logistics complexity for lithium batteries

Important Note for Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 Users - If you are using a CM4 with eMMC and CM4 adapter as your DevTerm core, the microSD/TransFlash slot on the ClockworkPi mainboard will not work at all. You will need to use the eMMC as the "system drive" for your DevTerm, and the SD card built-in device will not be accessible to the operating system. This means you will need to flash the eMMC on your CM4 with a DevTerm image using a process like this: https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2020/how-flash-raspberry-pi-os-compute-module-4-emmc-usbboot before you are able to use your device. Attempting to boot from the microSD/TransFlash slot will cause the DevTerm to behave as though you have nothing in the slot.
