  2. GPS antenna

Software Configuration

Set Root Password

In the default configuration, the no password is set for the root user (administrator) on the Radarcape. We strongly advise you to set a password for security reasons. Please remind your password as there is currently no other password recovery method than creating a new SD card image for your Radarcape.

First you must login to your Radarcape via SSH.

  • Windows users can use the free SSH client Putty.
  • Linux/Unix users may use SSH from the command line.

Please replace rs11.home with the DNS name or IP address of your personal Radarcape.

An initial root password has not been set. Therefore, you can login with user root and no password.

You can set a new root password with the following command:

passwd
