Quick Start Guide

1. If you purchased the Raspberry Pi 5 AI Large Model package, the TF card you received contains the default image in the "Raspberry Pi 5_Factory Image_Online+Offline Large Model" folder. This image is only suitable for running AI Large Model development chapters. If you need to run examples from other chapters, please flash the image in the "Raspberry Pi 5_Factory Image_ROS+AI Vision" folder.

2. Users who purchased the non-AI Large Model package: the factory image on the TF card you received is in the "Raspberry Pi 5_Factory Image_ROS+AI Vision" folder. This image can run all other examples except the AI Large Model development chapter.

3. If you purchased the SSD version, the image is an integrated factory image. You can directly run all tutorial examples.

Now let's guide users on how to remotely control the Raspberry Pi without a monitor.

Check System

Our Raspberry Pi factory system has hotspot enabled by default. You can use your phone or computer to check if there is a hotspot named Pi_Hot in the surrounding area.

If you can detect the Pi_Hot hotspot, the system has started normally.

If no hotspot is detected, you can judge by observing the LED indicator status on the Raspberry Pi mainboard.

• LED Indicator

When Raspberry Pi 5 starts normally, the LED indicator will change from red to green, and then the green light will flash irregularly!

If the Raspberry Pi cannot start or must be shut down for some reason, the LED indicator will usually flash a specific number of times to prompt the user!

Remote Access System

The Raspberry Pi factory system has SSH, VNC, and hotspot enabled by default. We can connect to the Raspberry Pi's hotspot using a computer, and then connect to the Raspberry Pi system through SSH or Real_VNC Viewer.

• System Information

Username: pi

User password: yahboom

Hotspot name: Pi_Hot

Hotspot password: 12345678

xxxxxxxxxx
Jupyter lab password: yahboom

• Get IP Address

Windows users can locate the Raspberry Pi hotspot IP range based on the WiFi IP address.

Open terminal: Win+R, enter cmd and press Enter.

Check IP: Enter ipconfig in terminal.

Based on the above information, you can locate that the Raspberry Pi current hotspot IP range is 10.42.0.xx

Check resolved IP devices: arp -a

Among them, 10.42.0.1 is the Raspberry Pi IP. If there are multiple devices, you can test by connecting different IP devices via VNC!

xxxxxxxxxx
The `arp -a` command will list IP addresses resolved by the local computer and their corresponding MAC addresses. If you cannot find the Raspberry Pi IP using this command, you can use Advanced IP Scanner to scan IP addresses of devices on the same network segment!

• VNC Connection

Connect VNC based on IP:

Enter username and password:

Successful connection interface:

Precautions

If you fail to connect VNC multiple times based on IP, you can enter raspi-config via SSH to check VNC configuration.

Steps to enable VNC via SSH: Please refer to the [Remote Access Tutorial].

• Enable VNC Error

Update system and software before enabling VNC:

sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
