Beginner Question (Rasberry Pi Base + emonTH)

Submitted by M7md on Sat, 16/01/2016 - 11:13

Hi,

First just to mention I am beginner into this new world :)

On Mar 2015, I bought RFM69Pi Raspberry Pi Base Station board (only board since I have my own raspberry, sd card and Wifi dongle)

and emonTH Temp and Hum Node

Then I format my SD card and installed the new image on it. Now I want it to work, I tried to follow the Base Station Setup tutorial but I couldn't follow up and find the ip.

I connect my rassberry Pi to screen, it boot up and stop by (ROOT@EMONPI) where I shall write something?

Can any one mention the steps to make it work with my Temp nodes?

Thanks for your help in advance :)

Your sarcasm too is highly appreciated. Remember, most people answering questions here do so out of goodwill. So even though most times, collectively, we can offer a much better service than commercial operators, you must not expect somebody who knows the answer to your particular problem to respond instantly.

Do you have the Pi connected to the internet via WiFi or Ethernet? Remember you must connect via Ethernet first... make some Google searches on "find Pi IP address" to figure out how to communicate with the Pi that way versus the display output.
