## QUICK START

If you are new to the V4 architecture, see the getting started manual.

## INTRODUCTION

Core4 runs on the Teratronik V4 series controllers V4 and V4½. Both boards are based on an ARM9 core running at 200MHz.

Common features | Software Support
--- | ---
ARM9 based microcontroller, 200MHz MMC/SDCard socket TFT Display interface up to 640x480 pixels at 24bit color depth, up to 800x600 pixels at 16bit color depth Resistive 4-wire touch screen interface 10/100MBit Ethernet Two USB host ports One USB device port AC97 Audio codec Battery and goldcap backed realtime clock | Uses a *nix like filesystem structure. Easily scriptable using the Lua Language. The Core4Manager software for Windows and Linux allows creating your own Lua based applications.
