Note: There are many conflicts between how the software maps GPIO pins and how the dev board maps them to its functions. Many of the conflicts are resolved by removing the external SDRAM chip and the TFT LCD display + resistive touch panel that come attached to the dev board. The unresolved conflicts are noted in the pinout descriptions above. Currently, testing has shown that it is not necessary to remove either the SDRAM or the TFT LCD display + resistive touch panel. If you choose to remove them, our experience is that the easiest way to remove the SDRAM chip is by first cutting the leads on one side of the chip (e.g.- with an X-Acto knife) and then lifting the chip and rocking it until the leads on the other side break. Be sure that no broken leads short to another pin as this can cause the dev board and/or display to malfunction. If some do, just clean them up so that they are separate again. This method reduces the amount of knife work, and the chance for slicing other things on the board (or yourself). To remove the TFT LCD display + resistive touch panel module, lift the module away from the metal tray, bend the metal tray out of the way, then cleanly pull/tear the flex PCB away from the solder connections to the main board (the connections usually break without much force). The metal tray is attached to the board with double stick tape. You just have to pull that up.
