Step 4. (Optional) Install GNU Tools

If you want to develop applications that execute in the host and communicate with the target DT7816 module either through USB and/or Ethernet, you need to install the GNU C and C++ compilers for the host computer.

To install the gcc package and kernel sources in the Debian/Ubuntu Linux distribution, enter the following command:

# sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc make linux-headers-$(uname -r)

Now, you can download and install the DT7816 software.
