Intial Raspberry Pi Setup Instructions

  1. Change the hostname to TIMMS-SN00XXX. Example for TIMMS with a serial number SN00200 in the command line use “sudo vi /etc/hostname TIMMS-SN00200” without parentheses “sudo vi etc/hostname TIMMS-SN00200”.
  2. Update the base raspberry pi software using the command “sudo apt-get update” to check available updates then “sudo apt upgrade” to perform the updates. Example: sudo apt-get update
  3. Install anydesk via the link https://anydesk.com/en/downloads/linux.
  4. Set Password to standard password (if you don't know the standard password ask Dr. Delene).
  5. Add the sourceforge ADPAA repository to the raspberry pi home directory.
  6. Setup crontab to reboot each day. See https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=126106
