Steps to set up a Raspberry PI with AMTech M2MBridge

  • Login to the application UI as a follower user
  • Go to Sensors > M2MBridge Application menu and download the provided Raspberry PI image
  • Remove the memory card from the PI and insert it into your computer
  • Identify the device path for the memory card under /dev directory (you may use gnome-disks as auxiliary tool)
  • Write the image to the memory card. Using ddrescue:
sudo ddrescue -f /path/to/amtech-ubuntu-mate-16.04.2-desktop-armhf-raspberry-pi-compat.img /dev/<deviceid>
  • Remove the card from your computer and reinsert it into the Raspberry PI
  • Boot the PI
    • Wired network interface is auto configured using DHCP
    • Wireless network is autoconfigured as an AP with SSID 'amtech-pi'; password is 'freepass'. If you connect to this network, the PI will have address 192.168.0.1
    • SSH is enabled
  • SSH to the PI by using the following credentials:
User: amtech
Password: 4mt3ch.
  • Execute sudo raspi-config to expand the filesystem
    • Go to "Advanced Options" > "Expand Filesystem"
    • Go to "Finish" and reboot the PI
  • Go to http://<address of your pi>/ to start configuring the PI
